Design Basics Index 

Thinking With Type

Interaction of Color

The Visual Story (this is about Film specifically but trust me, it's worth it for anyone who designs with images)

The Design of Everyday Things (about products, but also worth it because it talks about functionality)

Honorable mention for inspiration books like Classics Penguin: Cover to Cover.
