Make your own book with Blurb

Make your own book with Blurb

Blurb is a company and a community that believes passionately in the joy of books – reading them, making them, sharing them, and selling them.

Holding a finished book with your name on the cover is a truly amazing feeling; it’s one of those experiences everyone should have. As software people, designers, and publishing professionals at the top of our game, we realized something both incredible and obvious:

there’s no good reason why it should take tons of time, technical skills, big bucks, or friends in high places to publish a book. Or a zillion books, for that matter.

So we put our minds together, and developed a creative publishing service simple and smart enough to make anyone an author – every blogger, cook, photographer, parent, traveler, poet, pet owner, marketer, everyone. (This means you.)

[re]design

It's time to [re]design design... What is design for? It is widely accepted that we have no more than 10 years to turn around our unsustainable ways of living. In this state of emergency, what role can design play in creating positive solutions and true quality of life?

Climate change presents designers with a massive responsibility – and opportunity. As creative thinkers and doers, designers are uniquely placed to review, rethink and remake the products, services and systems that shape our future.

[re]design is a social enterprise that propagates sustainable actions through design. We seek out and promote products and projects that are friendly to people and planet, and partner with a wide range of organisations to pioneer sustainable innovation.

[re]design events and exhibitions examine the ecological imperatives, social and political drivers, and creative strategies that shape sustainable design. We aim to engage diverse audiences – public, education and business – in the [re]design of design.
