Beautifully crafted book about on one of the most relatable yet often underrated topics. Explores different concepts of what beauty is, how we could experience it every day and examines whether we could have more of it in our daily lives. Shapes your opinion and asks questions rather than tells you what to think. Great read and visual inspiration for everyone!

If you’re at all interested in design this is a book you’ll want, in Sagmeisters talk that I seen at GDFS he discussed a lot of the ideas from this book. It’s also very interesting if you’re not into design, the book itself is gorgeous.
Also bend the book one way and then the other

Good book, but had marks on and was a bit battered round the edges and spine already

A beautifully designed, printed and bound book. I can’t fault Sagmeister and Walsh on this one. Really good quality slipcase too. Also love the details like if you bend the book up or down and look at the edge of the pages you can see different words
by Adam Breckons
The first part of the book is the most valuable, it is written in an appropriately academic style yet easy to read and digest. This is not a book all about Stefan and Jessica’s work, which I was glad about. The last quarter of the book or so is just images of ‘beautiful’ things which fills out the total page count a bit.
