1) Paperback Book Fifteen Things Charles & Ray Teach Us by Eames Office. Charles and Ray Eames were two of the best industrial designers of the 20th century - but to call them "industrial designers" doesn´t capture the range of work that they produced which included everything from architecture to educational movies. While they didn´t write this book themselves, the author has managed to capture their spirit on the pages of this little treasure. It´s almost as if you had Charles and Ray as your personal design coach. The book makes the assumption that you know something about their work, but even if you don´t you can still gain from the advice (and if nothing else it´s a great starting point to research their work). While I like to see pictures in a book aimed at designers, the few words speak volumes. The tips have a very zen like quality, for example tip number 2 is "Notice the ordinary." This book would make a great gift for any creative friend you have, or if you find yourself in a rut!¤ Page Updated: Robert N. Goolsby, 9-Jan-2009, 193031700X9781930317000, 0X1-YGB-8
