Description

In the tradition of 101 Things I Learned in Architecture School, Please Make This Look Nice's author Peter Ahlberg has compiled, via personal interviews and the designers' own lessons, archival ephemera, the inspirations, and criticism from designers all over the world, creating a very personal, behind-the-scenes compendium of the people, concepts, and products that embody how design shapes our experience of the world. Equal parts design inspiration and design manual, Please Make This Look Nice is the first book about graphic design that combines lessons, writings, technique, case studies, and personal design ephemera from celebrated designers.
