The Graphic Eye

How do graphic designers see the world? A new book aims to answer that question by peeking into their photo albums. The Graphic Eye (Chronicle Books), compiled by designer and art director Stefan Bucher, is a collection of photos by 120 top designers from around the world, including Ed Fella, Marian Bantjes, Jakob Trollbäck, and Rodrigo Corral. The lushly printed shots reveal creative inspirations (natural wonders, beautiful strangers) and unique obsessions (signage, lots and lots of signage). Go beyond the covers by comparing the design work of the contributors with their views from beyond the lens. The Graphic Eye makes a great gift for the creative mind on your holiday shopping list.
