About
Group Thinkery is the brain-child of book designer Christopher Tobias of Tobias’ Outerwear for Books. Please check out my work.
This site is intended to be mostly topical. Discussions center on client relations, work process, education, etc. I want this to be a group project. In addition to your discussions (which are open to all, in or outside of book design) please feel free to suggest new topics of discussion. Just email me: chris[at]groupthinkery.com. You can also follow us on Twitter: @thinkery
