Nice examples

If you learn about design from reading, this book isn't for you. It teaches by giving visual examples. The text does nothing more than analyze the design. It has the same feel as an award book. The work is outstanding and worldwide, but mostly from the UK. The writing is decent but mostly lacks depth. The examples, devine.
