Hey all - thanks Ken.. btw you can still download some of these as PDF at the HDL website <http://www.helsinkidesignlab.org/pages/publications> (and printed versions of all are available via Lulu <http://www.lulu.com/shop/bryan-boyer-and-justin-w-cook-and-marco-steinberg/legible-practises/paperback/product-21041196.html>).. the HDL site itself is worth a squiz too - particularly the final few posts on the platform <http://www.helsinkidesignlab.org/blog/backstory-of-this-website>, project selection process <http://www.helsinkidesignlab.org/blog/how-does-hdl-choose-projects>and impact <http://www.helsinkidesignlab.org/blog/hdlorg-by-the-numbers> etc. oh - and their Ethnography Field Guide <http://www.helsinkidesignlab.org/pages/ethnography-fieldguide> is pretty cool too - particularly if you're working with students or participant observers cheers jy On 24 June 2014 07:16, Ken Friedman <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > Dear Colleagues, > > Today, I received a query asking where to find copies of the Helsinki > Design Lab books on strategic design and design thinking.
