    i always look at them for inspiration. more than anything. but rarely for the same medium.

    like if i want to design something i may look at a cartier bresson monograph or if i want to paint i may look at old typeset posters.

    favorites would have to be rauschenberg's combines, warhol "giant", emigre no. 70, the neasden control centre 1st book, carson's "end of print" obv ... robert frank's "the americans", jenny holzer's whitney monograph ... there's so much great out there.

    • i also love the book as a medium though, and constantly find myself just staring at layout choices and design decisions as well.colin_s
