Book Overview
We’re excited to share a brand new resource with you: Creative Acts for Curious People. It’s a vibrant, illustrated book full of unconventional and practical ways to help you bring creative approaches to any challenge you face. Exercises like Expert Eyes hone your observation skills, How to Talk to Strangers fosters understanding, and Designing Tools for Teams builds creative leadership. They’re at once light-hearted, tough, surprising, and impactful — and they’ll help you turn curiosity into ideas, and ideas into action.
Creative Acts for Curious People includes more than eighty assignments, countless ideas, and memorable stories from throughout the d.school’s decade-plus history. This collection was curated by executive director Sarah Stein Greenberg from some of the world's most inventive minds, including d.school and IDEO founder David Kelley, Readymade magazine founder Grace Hawthorne, innovative choreographer Aleta Hayes, Google chief innovation evangelist Frederik Pferdt, and many more.
This book was so much fun to create, and it will be even more exciting to see what you create with it.
