Book lovers day explore 📚 Favorite design books

Happy Book Lovers Day 📚! To celebrate the occasion our designers created this series of conceptual book sculptures inspired by the topics behind some of Microsoft Design’s favorite art & design books. In these conceptual structures we didn’t seek to represent the physical books but rather thought to explore bringing the topics of these books to life through physical form. You may recognize some of these titles from your desktop stack or find your next favorite design book 👀  

Read below for the books we were inspired by in order of appearance...  

-Principles of Color Design by Wucius Wong 

-The Elements of Typographic Style by Robert Bringhurst 

-Mismatch: How Inclusion Shapes Design by Kat Holmes 

-Designs for the Pluriverse by Arturo Escobar 

-Shapes as Letters by Mio Yokota/Whatever Press
