It shows you books and tells you the publishers and designers who create them and where you can buy them from. It shows a wide variety of book designs for different genres.
Recently something that caught my eye was the Small World Project which is a collection of books that looks at the exploration into the “six degrees of separation” by Dan Burgess. In order to gather data, 3 chain letters, each with an attached questionnaire were sent out and tracked as they travelled around the globe. Participants filled in the data and forwarded on the letters to individuals of their choice. The data from each journey was then compiled into individual books, along with an artists impression of the individuals involved based on their own descriptions of themselves, drawn by Aurora Cacciapuoti. I loved the design of the books but also the idea behind them.
