Format:Paperback
Want inspiration? Pick up this book. Examples, and there practically is nothing else but examples, range from 'cool', accessible graphics to 'raw', outrageous designs.

I bought the book to help inspire me with ideas for the presentation of architectural design projects in a business environment. To begin with I thought I'd made a mistake, with only about 25% of the examples being directly applicable, but by the end of the first week of ownership I had to throw out the idea of sending it back because it was so well thumbed! It is a great book to have in the collection.

Decoration as design 15 Sep 2008
By ricadus
Format:Paperback
Anthology of chin-stroking 1990s decoration from a selection of mainly American and British-based designers. There is some beautiful-looking stuff here but I can't help wondering about the sheer arbitrariness of much of it.

Interesting but not critical 27 May 2006
By Scott Auch - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This title has some interesting visual elements, good reference, but not very diverse in style or inspiration. Most designs have a "collage" treatment/flavor about them.
