Design For Obama
Barack Obama is a great example of how good design is a powerful weapon. Progressively enough, he was not afraid to invest in design, gaining an excellent brand, a powerful communication package and the respect of artists from all over the world.
I'm a huge fan of Taschen, and a huge fan of what designers from all over the world did for Obama during the most visually-driven presidential campaign in history. So, this book definitely goes on my Christmas list.
