Our Imaginary Library 👈

Upon many requests, here is a reading list of design fiction and speculative design materials that have inspired our practice at Imagination of Things, including books in our library and links to articles and online resources as well.

Though not all are specifically about tips in design fiction practice, we often turn to these when organizing workshops, starting a project, and all-around design research.

Enjoy!
