Credeal's Design Art Collection made the cut for Drawn, Volume 03: Leaders in Contemporary Illustration, a book published by Capsules, the Melbourne-based publisher that collects illustration work from around the world under a single cover each year. INDUSTRIA directed the collection as its own editorial project, commissioning illustrators to build notebook and stationery covers kids would actually want to carry, rather than applying a single logo across a product line.

Two of the collection's illustrations run inside the book: Stay Hungry Stay Foolish, built around a roaring bear and its mountain world, and Live Love Life's owl-haired portrait, each reproduced full-page alongside the rest of the volume's selected work. Capsules even printed a limited foil-stamped variant cover of the book itself, a wireframe portrait stamped in silver over a geometric pattern.

A book like Drawn exists to name the illustrators worth watching each year, and Credeal's notebooks earning a place in three separate design publications now, Magic Paintbrush, Computer Arts Brasil and Drawn, is proof the curation itself keeps finding new editors willing to make the same case.

"Leaders in contemporary illustration, and a notebook brand that earned its place among them."
