Product Description

Far from being a fashion monograph, this book "images" Paul Smith's brain on to the page, presenting original and often humorous thoughts and ideas in shop windows, in advertising campaigns, in photographs and souvenirs brought back from world travels that became the inspiration for the look of the season. In addition to texts and images by Paul Smith himself, collaborations include: an account of his teenage obsession with cycling by Richard Williams, sports writer on the "Guardian"; a fiction by celebrated novelist James Flint; interviews with neuroscientist Dr Semir Zeki and curator Hans-Ulrich Obrist; two posters; and "The Bunny", a comic book within the book, complete with a cryptic crossword, puzzles, a fold-out board game and illustrations by various acclaimed artists and designers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great creative input, 27 Aug 2009

By	Eugenio Pantaleon (Chile) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: You Can Find Inspiration in Everything*: *and if you can't, look again (Paperback)

You must see it to believe it. Both form and content are inspiring. I have been "reading" if that is possible, different pieces of it and I have enjoyed every bit.
How he (Paul Smith) succeded without much trying. Consider that he is a designer without much (really not at all) formal education on the trade. Possibly it will not work the same way for you or me, but it really shows a way. Has everything to do with the improv movement.
