This is fantastic advice. There's no worse way to find inspiration than outsourcing it to an algorithm- that goes for Pinterest, too. Books (especially old ones) are such a rich source of inspiration. I wish more people would do this.
Totally agree. I did not even talk about the algo that delivers only stuff it thinks you will like, especially trendy stuff, but this is totally it. How do you create your own vision if you always see the same things...
I couldn’t agree more! In my case, I often use quite old books, as I mainly work with calligraphy and recently also painting. I also draw lots of inspiration from nature, historical clothing, fabrics, and of course works of art. Love your approach and your work 😀!

Custom Lettering of the 60s and 70s is one of my absolute top books ever! There’s a 40s and 50s one too, which i love almost as much!!
There is also one about 20/30s :P I have the three of them haha :D

Thanks Stefanie :) Yes old books are the best, especially for layout too.
