Journals and Ideas books

One of my passions in life is beautiful books. I collect designed books, artist’s books, journals and sketch books.

At 2005 I designed, illustrated and wrote a journal called “Imal’e – a pregnancy diary” published by Babel publishing. It is a creative diary in which the pregnant woman can follow a designed grid and fill in her thoughts and emotions every week. She can write, draw, collage and use it as a sketch book. The text in the book is sincere and blunt written by experienced mothers. It is made to be a keepsake and a time capsule of an unforgettable time in a woman’s life.

A few years ago I bought a journal called “This book will change your life” by Benrik. It is a crazy book, chaotic and colorful design and gives 365 daily instructions for hysterical living. Since then they published more journals of this kind called: This Diary Will Change Your Life, The Couple's Book, Lose Weight! Get Laid! Find God!
