BOOKS!!!

Como tem acontecido desde que me conheço como designer, ontem a noite peguei em alguns livros que fazem parte da minha pequena mas valiosa biblioteca, e sentado começei a desfolhar todos eles, com os phones montados a ouvir sum real underground Hip Hop music. E enquanto apreciava aquele momento de referências, perguntei-me a mim mesmo, porque não fotografar alguns destes livros e partilhar com o pessoal aqui do blog? (aqueles, claro, que estejam interessados em saber + sobre cultura urbana contemporânea/pop art/sneakers/streetwear/graffiti/etc.).
Assim aqui vai uma lista dos mambos que eu tenho lido recentemente:
