The Book of Beautiful Cities was created as an informational booklet based on the guidelines of designing beautiful cities. There are many sources on the internet with information regarding what really sets the world’s best cities apart from the rest. The intention of this book was to create a visual guide summarizing what really goes into a beautiful city. The book focused on information graphics to make its points, paired with short explanations as to why a certain design aspect carries so much weight in a city. Interestingly enough, after researching and creating this booklet, I realized that many of the design elements and principles are reflected in city design as well. It was an interesting lesson in the importance of design in the everyday world that I hope the readers of this book can take away as well.
