رفتم سراغ ای‌پاب های هزار سال باز نشده و رها شده‌م ببینم از هر کدوم چقدر مونده و چرا مونده.
یه تایمی خیلی درگیر برین‌استورمینگ و اسکچ‌نوتینگ دشه بودم.
خوب بود کمک کرد ولی یکی دوتا کتاب خوندن هم کافی بود براش.

Every designer has heard of brainstorming, but what about exploring other conventions of creative thinking? This book is a mini encyclopedia of different activities and practices you can try to get those ideas flowing. Some of these practices I've never even heard of. If you're looking to think outside the box, definitely check this one out.

3 1/2 stars! Alot of ideas for identifying the design problem and creating solutions. It didn't go very in depth into each topic, but the case studies were helpful.

Amusing- really; did not expect that. It's always insightful to look into the thinking behind a project, specially in design when it has boarder aspects of solving the problem, because as a designer you don't only deal with the aesthetics, but also how a design is perceived emotionally and intellectually; the case studies were fun to read.

Although there are a couple of sections, that had moderately interesting ideas, overall the book proved to be uninspiring. The projects were boring and seemed to rooted with an agenda. The end of the book provided the most interesting content, as there were short, but interesting interviews with designers .

Um livro massa sobre processo criativo e com vários macetes para designers. Ainda assim, pode ser meio básico para os designers com mais experiência de mercado.

One of my favorite graphic designers, Ellen Lupton, presents clearly actionable methods and strategies for fleshing out concepts and experimenting with visual elements.

I bought this to help me teach my graphic design class. It's a great overview of the design process with good example case studies. It's a little too detailed for high school level, but helped me a lot in my direction for discussing several different ways to come up with ideas for projects. Now we'll see if they'll put any of those to good use!

Read this book to look for HOW and WAYS to get inspiration. The book itself does not give you any specific answers for your creative works. Consider it as a reference book rather than an information source.

This book will help with your brainstorming ideas in many ways and this is suitable for graphic designers who want to enhance in their designing skills. A Lot of visuals and creative way to show that the process that involves in expressing ideas.

Sentí que faltaba ahondar en los temas, lo que se recompensaba un poco con los estudios de casos (muy útiles por cierto). Inspirador, pero en partes pesado y te dejaba con las ganas de saber más.
Buen libro

Uma boa forma de aprender o básico do design thinking. Todos os tópicos são muito bem ilustrados, o que ajuda na compreensão dos conceitos. Bem bacana para quem está começando.

Although my focus was not on the graphic design element of the reading, it presents an inexhaustible resource for developing and planning for creativity.

Lots of tangible ways to think outside the box and conquer creative block. Some of the case studies feel dated 'cause the book is 10yo.

This book clearly describes the various graphic design thinking, but a liitle lacking of deep discussion and how to use.

An invalueable and illuminating resource for any graphic designer, certainly one I will be coming back for inspiration and for when I need to jog some ideas.
