Investigations.

This blog post is supposed to be about printed materials I have recently "read" or "investigated" which have inspired me to design.

But here's the thing....I haven't quite "read" anything (time constraints, you know how it is.)...but I believe I've "investigated."

(I've become quite interested in these scientific drawings from old books. These are from an old dictionary we had, and the way they handled the type is interesting to me.)

(Silverstein :])

(A lot of these old books have been redesigned with textured/cloth covers and these interesting printed patterns. I love them.)

(Awesome.)

(From some Pearl Jam book)

(I quite like this Table of Contents.)
