Title: Nice package, little book
Product review: If you are looking for a quick visual reminder of the handful of Marc Newson designs in this book (plus a t-shirt and buttons -- wow!), then perhaps this is for you. The title should have given it away, but it didn't ... it's an 18-page pop-up book.I was hoping for a few pages about each project, the thought processes behind the design and materials choices, more cool pictures of the plane and the plane-like chaise, but none of those are in here. There's a one-paragraph word-bite about each project, and then a picture (or pictures (1 project)) that moves, or pops up in 3-D. Very limited, and rather disappointing. Yes, they look cool -- I just wanted more.It also comes with '1 SHEET OF BLOTTER-ART'. If it were actual blotter, then I'm sure the book would be that much more interesting.So, to reiterate: if you love his work, and more is better, then this may be for you. If you want to learn, however, your money is better spent elsewhere.
