Format:Hardcover
I know this is a book that I'll look through time and time again and always find something that I missed before. It's possible to find inspiration anywhere but it's always handy to have a concentrated source such as this.

excellent overview
2 July 2008
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Excellent overview of current state of design. Although the book is a bit too heavy, don't try reading this in bed or on a plane, it is worth every penny. Compared to Area (the non-numbered first issue) this book focuses not only on paper based graphic design and I really don't know how one can assess or put a value on such a broad field of possibilities. It is still brilliant. For anyone assuming an investment in graphic design be it a box, a shop, a book, stationery or whatever needs an outside with colours or patterns, this book is a must-have, must read.

PERFECTION
2 May 2008
Format:Hardcover
This is most certainly one of the best books Phaidon has published yet. Completely blows Area out of the water. Worth every penny.
Great Art and Design reference

One of my best acquisition. Not only the book is full of amazing references, you can also find in the end, all sites, design companies and names to explore even more.
