Every design/advertising student would like to grow professionally with the best admen, but sometimes this is not possible. And that's why this website exists. What could be better than assembling the books recommended by worldwide top creatives, and learning where they have learned from? Probably pizza, but if you're not hungry we will share with you a couple of book recommendations every month.
And remember... keep books away from liquid substances.
