Regular TBTP followers are well aware of my bias for old school print travel guide books. So you won’t be surprised to discover that I’m liking a new series of city guides called The Design Guide.

Aimed at both travelers and local residents alike, the guide books are designed to “connect creative people with creative places”. Each edition in the series will focus on art, architecture, design, fashion and culture in a single city.

So far, The Design Guide  has issued editions for Sydney, Melbourne and Berlin. They will be followed in the near future by Helsinki, Zurich, Istambul, Tokyo and more. But you can find samples here.
