Like many, I've also been inspired lately by the work of Penguin's Coralie Bickford-Smith, who's work continues to impress just about everyone. Being a fan of retro-inspired design, I naturally love the work she has done for the
Classic Boys Adventures Series and their new range of hard-bound classics. This in-depth
interview on
design:related provides some great insights into her work, as well as how she got started.

Her comments on her early career inspirations, like
Quadrille's Tricia Guild books and her current projects involving textile design are reflected in the latest hard bound classic covers-which, when placed together, remind me of colorful bolts of printed cloth found in a fabric store. Simply brilliant.
