Web Designer's Idea Book Volume 2

My second book follows in the direction of it’s predecesor and at the same time deviates enough to keep it from being a redundant rehash of the first.

Overall my hope was to do a sequel without the typically sequel failures. So while the book follows current trends and patterns it does offer some very fresh content.

The biggest change is that there are no chapters on color. This topic was throughly covered in volume 1 and need not be rehashed. In it’s place is a review of the primary principles of design and a full set of real life samples showing them in use. No overly academic ideas that don’t apply.

Are you the designer of one of the sites featured in the book? If so feel free to use one of the "as featured in" badges.

...this is a great source of inspiration for designers.

It's organized into very clever topics making it the perfect reference book. It's loaded with screenshots, screenshots, and more screenshots... just as before, but all new, and more recent.

I feel as though the author was reading my mind, picking only the best websites that truly are like interactive works of art. It is the cure to my designer's block!

- M. Mitchell


It takes the best methods of organizing content from a variety of online galleries and combines them to create what could be the most well-thought-out source of design inspiration available.

Reviews

"This book is a great resource for inspiration if you’re in a creative rut. The best part about it is that it’s a collection of modern websites that apply to today’s design standards, not some ancient collection of Web 1.0 artifacts. "
