Contextual Collection Part 3

These are some Graphics books I bought during my first term at University. When stuck for ideas for how to design a certain piece of type I will often look in Typography Sketchbooks along with another book called Handjob. I merge ideas I find into another to create a new design. 

How to be a graphic designer, without losing your soul is a very useful book which helps you organize your ideas so you can present them to your client or team.

The final book called 100 ideas that changed graphic design; includes every idea you can imagine when it comes to design some examples are calligrams, propaganda, dynamic diagonals and motion graphics. Beneficial for when in need of presentation ideas for a project. This book provides a brief history of the technique and the designer/artist that made it famous for what it is now.
