Neubau Welt by Ami Kealoha
Tired of the same old vector graphics everyone uses? Neubau Welt is a new book filled with 1000+ editable illustrations by Berlin-based designer Stefan Gandl (he also penned the collectable DSOS1) and his crew, Neubau. From silhouetted trees to lear jets, the encyclopedic collection features a wide variety of everyday objects. A useful alternative to ClipArt, purchasers get exclusive rights to the highly detailed, enlargable graphics in the book (Macromedia Freehand and Adobe Illlustrator files) and three new Neubau typefaces that are included on the accompanying CD.
Available from Amazon
