Things I like, use and recommend

Here’s a list of things I currently use, or have used in the past, or just simply enjoy that they exist.

This started as a list of my favourite design books that I wanted to share, but I realised a broader list might also make a good gift guide for those interested in design.

I hate the laziness inherent in badly designed or poorly made products, so everything here earns its place by being well-made, useful, and built to last. They’re not always the cheapest option, but I’d rather buy one good tool than buy the same cheap one twice.

Some of the links are Amazon affiliate links, which means I might get a small fee if you buy anything through them. Where I can, I’ve linked to the original products, not the copies found in the sponsored search results.
