I don’t do designy-art posts often. I felt compelled because I love illustrators and designers and books. I adore my kindle, but anything that keeps people buying the real thing is absolutely wonderful. These beautiful books with covers designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith would be that kind of wonderful.

This is my favorite:

I spied them on Design*Sponge earlier today and have not been able to stop looking at them since.
