Let it swim
You might already own this book, have seen it, have heard of it… so you know that it is filled with thousands of hand-lettering (from 55 typographers and graphic designers!) and it is such an inspiring book. Makes me want to get into hand-lettering more!
I got this book a while ago at the New Museum book store, and not only I was interested in making books from this book, but also I was in love with the graphic design of this book so I thought I would share it here for Friday morning inspiration.
The cover:
I love this bold and fun layout and the wood type texture:
Content page – lots of fonts combination, but not busy at all:
and I love the illustration! I didn’t know you can make book like this:
Each chapter has own look:
This is a very cute alphabet book idea:
How fun and cute is this book? I love cupcakes, they are just so sweeeet in every way. This book looks so creative, I would love to try making (simple) one!

For more elegant occasion, you can try these Cupcake Wrapper from Paper Orchid. You just wrap it around the cupcake and the result is so pretty!
After eating out all the time for like 2-3 weeks straight, I wanted to cook something and eat at home so badly. Now that my kitchen is almost all set, I’ve been enjoying cooking. Today, I found a link to this Spanish cooking book called “1080 Recipes” and I just love the website design and the illustration of the book so much that I want to buy one. I can cook Spanish food and enjoy the design at the same time! You can download some sample recipes from the website, too.
The designer, Javier Mariscal’s Estudio Mariscal website and their work is soo very impressive, too!
