Paper book cover is slightly torn on back side but inside and cover are brand new.

The seventy fashion brands that appear in this book are selected from the most highly regarded brands for women, men, unisex, and kids; featuring some of the most commonly used marketing tools including logo, shop exterior and interior designs, catalogs, shopping cards and shopping bags, together with seasonal promotional tools. Japanese girls love to keep and use the shopping bags and promotional tools of their favorite fashion brands, and it is a must for a fashion brand to produce "collectible" paraphernalia so as to attract their target audience. Featuring easily accessible page design with each spread showing the brand’s logo alongside the brand concept in text, accompanied by various photos of graphic promotional materials, which give readers a good understanding of how each element of marketing tools are connected to one another. Although this book only focuses on the fashion industry, logos, advertisements, shop designs and tools in the book could be applicable to other industries’ brands and shops. From an independent shop owner to anyone in need of brand recognition, this is a perfect reference full of resources.

A Fresh Design Spirit for the Modern Lifestyle

A complete lifestyle book, encompassing fashion, interiors, and gardensAttention, design and style mavens! There's a lot more to America than just the east and west coasts. Today, innovative American design--in clothing, home decor, even gardening--is emerging from the Midwest. So lay your bicoastal biases aside, and let Amy Butler show you what's happening in the heartland.Helping her fans jumpstart their own creative spark is Butler's fashion credo, and her approach has won her a huge following. Her "Mid Mod" philosophy--neither homespun nor haute couture--is as up to the minute as it is firmly rooted in Midwest tradition. Emphasizing simplicity and integrity of craft, Butler is passionate about recycling materials, reinventing vintage looks, and taking joy in the homemade. Her approach--drawing its inspiration from the natural world and the lives of real people--is organic in every sense of the word.Amy Butler's Midwest Modern brings the many aspects of its author's vision into focus, from re-imagining the home as a retreat for relaxation and dreaming, to picturing the body as a canvas for creating one's personal style, to looking to nature as a "sketchbook" for design ideas. Vibrantly illustrated, the book underscores design's practical side, with information on budgeting money and time, a shopping resources list, and "how-to" projects in every chapter.

Simple Techniques for Beautiful Jewelry

With this gloriously photographed and illustrated manual at hand, beaders can create awe-inspiring jewelry. It's the only current, comprehensive guide to working with cabochons--a flat piece of rock or mineral--and it covers all the basics, along with a range of new creative techniques and hot trends. Find out which tools and materials to use, which beads work best, and how to wrap them round the stones. Craft turned, pointed, twisted, brick stitch, ruffled, or scalloped edges, or add decorative fringe. For something dramatic, combine more than one cabochon in a single piece. Or, instead of natural stone, use dichroic glass or other found objects. Make a glittering brooch, funky bracelets, a wearable art necklace, and other showstoppers.

Inspiring Ideas to Make Every Surface Beautiful

Whether you have a single treasured objet dâ€™art or a collection of nature finds gathered on a country walk, a family of framed photographs or a set of leatherbound books, a trio of glass candlesticks or an ever-growing pile of bone china plates, here you will find new and exciting ways to present them. In Creative Display, Geraldine James shows how you can create the perfect table setting from mismatched plates and cutlery trawled from a fleamarket, how the simplest set of shelves can be arranged to create a miniature still-life, and how essential storage can become something beautiful in its own right. With a natural talent for seeking out the unusual, Geraldine introduces new ways to upcycle the everyday and recycle the reclaimedâ€”a weathered barn door becomes a striking side table, a stack of magazines reinvents itself as a lamp table, and a gently rusting metal radiator cover finds a new life as a display shelf for a treasured collected of seashells. In Geraldineâ€™s hands, the everyday item becomes a work of art and even the most mundane objects can be seen in a new light. In Creative Display you will find new and unusual ways to turn all your treasures into exciting art forms.

Used with cd included of die lines for box packaging. Great for packaging graphic designers. 

Packaging is an important factor in any retail environment and a key element in most marketing strategies. Consumers react immediately to package shapes, and are influenced by them when making buying decisions. Different product categories are often easy to recognize by their characteristic form, for example chocolate boxes or milk cartons. On the other hand, a manufacturer of an exclusive product, such as jewellery or perfume, may deliberately choose an unusual, eye-catching form. This completely revised edition of our bestseller serves as a reference for structural design. All designs have been selected on account of their functional relevance and acceptability, and are stored in eps vector format on the enclosed CD-Rom. They can be easily scaled and modified to suit specific requirements.

Like new barely used. Great for ideas for designing logos and branding. Perfect for graphic designers. 

With a new look and editorial approach, Los Logos: Compass remains the authoritative reference on contemporary logo design. Like its predecessors, Los Logos: Compass offers a definitive overview of current developments and advancements in logo design the creative discipline that shapes the identities of brands, companies, and individuals. Comprised of 304 pages, and in a larger format than used in the past, Los Logos: Compass offers a rich, high-quality selection of up-to-the-minute logos that readers have come to expect. But the focus of the publication has been further sharpened from a comprehensive documentation to a competent classification of prevailing tendencies in design. In addition to illustrating the various co-existing design approaches and trends that are shaping logo design today, and will continue to influence it in the coming years, the book showcases outstanding work by noted designers in short text features. Los Logos: Compass aims to be not only an archive of current design, but to educate designers and clients about which approaches make the best fit for a given project independent of the latest trends. This issue is especially important in a challenging economy in which innovation and identity are essential. This fifth edition in the Los Logos series is not only a source of inspiration and an authoritative reference manual, but also a valuable compass that shows that every design problem is a variety of creative opportunities in disguise.
