we have enjoyed sharing some of our favorite books this week...here are a few more, that do not fit into any specific category, but that we love to look at...thank you for following along all week!
rebecca:
this one from the fashion collection at the met is ever so inspiring and wonderful. i never get tired of looking at all the styles!
rinne:
this sheila hicks books is one of my all time favorite books ever. the combination of paper and design is the perfect backdrop to her stunning weavings.
rinne:
a friend gave me this jurgen lehl book years ago. i look at it often for inspiration when i am going on a textile shoot.
rinne:
seeing the gee's bend show years ago at the whitney was life changing. this book reminds me of the power of the show, of seeing these quilts in person.
rinne:
my books are heavily leaning towards textiles today! one more...i love this facsimile of louise bourgeois' ode a la bievre...the renderings of her textile 'pages' leap off the page.
rinne:
rebecca gave me this book a long time ago. the clothing shown within are all made from paper.
rinne:
another book from a powerful show...there are too many good ideas within it to pick just one...innovative ways design can help the planet for the people who need help the most.
rinne:
i never tire of looking into maira kalman's worlds...i particularly love this one.
kristen:
i am surrounded by children's books in my work life and home life and i have a major weakness for them too. this made it hard to choose my favs from our collection. sharing a few of the sweet ones that my family has enjoyed throughout the years.
kristen:
maps is one of those books that is never dull. each page you turn is filled with illustrated information about different cultures and areas in the world. it's loved by any age!
thanks you for reading this week!
