Rothman and her team carefully select the books that appear on the site for review, from children’s books to cookbooks to fine art catalogues to zines. Click on a cover and you will see spreads of the inside of each book and brief commentary on their best design qualities. The site also publishes interviews with designers, posts roundups of book-centered and design events, and—unusually—features a Sketchbooks section—where readers can peek inside the personal sketchbooks of accomplished illustrators such as Calef Brown, John Hendrix, and many others.
It’s always nice to take a peek behind the curtain to see the preliminary sketches and drawings that keep these illustrators sharp and on top of their game. Pencil, ink, watercolor, and collage abound.
