If you want a jolt of creative inspiration, try looking to PIE Books, a Japanese book publisher who aims to produce “sweet and fresh books that keep you entertained.” They publish books in various creative categories, from design to art to photography, but I’m particularly drawn to the ones that feature colorful patterns and stationery designs.
Below I’ve featured a few new releases that caught my eye, but you can find a bunch more on Amazon or browse through some of them in person at Kinokuniya, which has several locations in major cities around the U.S.
