Another nice find and a great source for inspired design. Apparently, this site was created in response to its previous incarnation being halted after the proprietors decided they would no longer sell books and instead focus on developing fonts and stock art. There was so much response of people pleading for the site to return, this was the well-designed result.

The books.youworkforthem.com is thorough and definitely knows its audience. The books showcased are from many facets of design — typography, architecture, film and fashion to name a few. Each category is presented as a collection of horizontal images. Click on any of them and the book is highlighted on its own page. And these books are eye-popping gorgeous.

One last thing. Each book has a link to Amazon for easy purchase. Good to remember when you want to buy that Graphic Designer friend of yours something special.
