With all of the ways we consume ideas today, it’s comforting to know that some of us still collect books.
So, we asked a few of you to share a photo of your favorite books on display at home or at your office (or just what you’re currently reading). We got so many great responses that we had to break up this post into 2 parts (check out Part 2 here). Below, take a peek at what’s on the bookshelves of top designers.
