CRITERIA

Selection Criteria for Design Resource List

There are a myriad of books, magazines, websites, blogs, and other Design resources, both off and online. It can be almost overwhelming without discernment and a set of criteria for a personalised resource list. I have endeavoured to make my list personal, dynamic, interactive — full of leads, links and places I love to go.

My criteria:

Books need to have been seen by me, touched, thumbed through, engaged. This can be in a shop or library, or in my own collection or even online as an eBook or preview (becoming a book for my wishlist).

I am not including books just for the sake of having a large reference list. I buy a lot of Design Books. These are chosen for their depth of understanding of the topic; their accessibility – easy to enter the content at any point; their expertise , usually in one topic area e.g. Colour or Water or Sound as a design element. Having said this, many students have put up great book lists, which will be on my ‘search for’



list in the year ahead.

Websites need to have up-to-date material, updated regularly with current content. They need to tap into contemporary trends and feature recently written articles. Photography images need to be referenced, as when they are not, it wastes too much of my time tracking them down.

Blogs need to be creative, have depth and get straight to the point. I am looking for information, not a good read or a journalistic piece about the writer. They need clear images and a rich, easily accessible archive.

Journals and articles need to demonstrate some contemporary construction of ideas . I don’t want to have to wade through academic treatise after treatise to find it is ‘turtles all the way down’; clear, well researched, contemporary thought with well-presented references to historical context .

Having written the above, it now sounds incredibly demanding – so I need to include the ones that are fun, and the ones I love. Play is an essential ingredient of my list –most of all the list needs to be dynamic and feed my design needs.

My Design Resource List needs to grow and change with me. For this reason I have created it in Evernote and am presenting it in a non-conventional format – an Issuu flipbook.
