Description

“A marvelous invitation to anyone with an interest in creativity, invention, and design.” (Michael Bierut) This colorful, handy card deck presents fifty-two exercises and activities to jump-start your creative juices, free you from creative block, start a new project, or finish an existing one. Each exercise offers insight into the innumerable small decisions involved in design: How to establish a pattern, continue a series, how to say it without words, how to name a project, what fits, and what doesn’t? These cards benefit established practicing designers or creatives in any field with activities that are sometimes playful, sometimes challenging, but always enlightening. Each activity is estimated to take 15 minutes.

Creative Education Trust provides an integrated curriculum format for primary and secondary schools in England. Emily Campbell, Creative Education Trust’s Director of Programmes, was formerly a graphic designer, a pattern maker in fashion, and design director at RSA and the British Council Arts Group. She lives in London, England.
“The design process is an object of great fascination these days, yet it remains stubbornly mysterious. Emily Campbell has created a series of deceptively simple-and fun-exercises that dispel the fog. They serve as a perfect introduction for a novice, a remarkably effective refresher for the seasoned practitioner, and a marvelous invitation to anyone with an interest in creativity, invention, and design.”
– Michael Bierut, Partner, Pentagram, New York
