As the weekend draws near I have a mixed bag of treats lined up.

 
I picked up a copy of Stefan Sagmeister’s book a month or two ago. It’s quite incredible. Not only for its beautiful production but because of it’s amazing use of ‘text in context’ to get key points across.  Here is a great example of some of the lessons he gets across in the book

And fitting into no theme at all, but to good not to share is this crazy paper engineering. Wait until it stars turning!
