DESCRIPTION:
It has many images of food laid out in visually appealing, often humorous designs, as well as images of GI Joes standing at attention and old Nintendo cartridges arranged in the colors of the rainbow. Things Organized Neatly takes the messiness of the everyday world and recasts it in neat and appealing designs. On one page a massive collection of cellphones from the past twenty years is laid out on the floor and photographed from above; on the next, a collection of candy is pleasingly arranged by color. Things Organized Neatly capitalizes on our current obsession with photographing and cataloguing all the objects that we interact with on a daily basis. Whether you’re a design aficionado, an obsessive cleaner and straightener, a social media maven constantly documenting your day, or someone just looking to be swept away for an afternoon in a book full of beautiful images, Things Organized Neatly offers every reader a chance to revel in the beauty of everyday life.. Based on the Webby Award–winning Tumblr site, Things Organized Neatly is thoughtfully composed of everyday objects, all displayed beautifully for the neat freak

Tim Finnigan said I love this book!. There is something so pleasing about seeing things organized in this way. In our modern world, we have too much stuff – and it just keeps getting tossed into bigger and bigger piles. It is peaceful to see photography like this, where each item stands independently on its own.I believe this is the future of design. People are overwhelmed by the crowded and indulgent mess caused by consumerism. By keeping things simple and structured, we can make the world more organized and calm.. Excellent eye candy! nice photos and collections - nothing I disliked, just expected a little more.. "Perfect gift for the CDO person in my life" according to Chris Legrand. Delivered quick. Perfect gift for the CDO person in my life.
