  • This PDF is a good resource https://www.designkit.org/resources/1

    In terms of creating brand books, this is good to look at as it's a satirical joke, so it gives you a sense of what not to do (such as putting things in for the sake of it) as well as things that most brand books tend to have (competitor context, tone of voice, do's and don'ts): https://www.quietroom.co.uk/santa_brandbook/
  • @Atulya . I found it to be quite practical and also holistics in it's approach and the topics covered. Time comitment wise on average it's taken about 8 of hours a week to complete a module.
  • I have two books pretty much permanently clasped under my arm whilst I'm working on projects:
    - This is Service Design Thinking
    - This is Service Design Doing
    You can also access quite a lot the second book on the website:

  • @Mercy Mhindurwa Hi Mercy, I had come across this very course on Coursera and I was intrigued so thank you for sharing! Would you say the course structure is practical in terms of everyday creative work?
  • Hi Atulya, apply of this creative impact course Creative Conscience can offer you a bursary of this 3 months game changing design course. Apply you have nothing to loose - see what happens. https://www.creative-conscience.org.uk/creative-impact-course/

  • Hey Atulya, I'm completing one on edX. I've been enjoying it so far and would recommend it Design Thinking and Creativity for Innovation by University of Queensland.

  • Hi Atulya, check out IDEO's learning coures (https://www.ideou.com/) There is some useful content/lessons in there worth exploring. Hope that helps.
