Due to the lack of any comprehensive guide to the creative city of Melbourne Ewan McEoin, in collaboration with Paul Charlwood and Viviane Stappmanns decided to stay up late and publish the first ever Melbourne Design Guide. The 300-odd page guide to architecture, craft, products, fashion, graphics and interiors was edited by McEoin and Stappmanns, designed by Studio Round and set a benchmark for self-published books in Melbourne. The first two edition sold out in 3 months. A new Melbourne Design Guide will be published in 2009 by Alphabet Press, edited by Stappmanns and designed by Chase and Galley
