As requested and suggested by a few loyal Design Sojourn readers, I have compiled what I think are the essential books that Industrial Designers should either own or read. Now I have one disclaimer, and that is I have intentionally left out the design yearbooks or the ever popular coffee table picture book collections.
The reason is that if you are looking at such books for inspiration, you will likely be recreating the same looks in one form or another. So going forward, I have divided the books into 3 categories, namely Thinking, Process and Designer Skills.
