ready made is a book i purchased from our local yorkshire sculpture park. yay! love yorkshire! the book ready made is sort of an eco book is gives information about how you can better yourself and the environment, providing things you can do at home by re-using things you might normally throw away. i really like the layout in this book everything is laid out so cleanly it kind of reflects my own work, the type is also pretty gorgeous aswell as the imagery and mostly everthing else... 
i used this for my inspiration in the mail shot brief for layout ideas and such. what else has
really interested me is the way they describe the book. 'this is not a book, it is a straight edge, a picture frame, a paper weight, a book end, a fly swatter...' if you think of all the different ways you use book not for just reading you can think of many different things. the way a book is made has lasted years quite simply since the dawn of the bible or even before, so why do i need to create a different design the one that is see,ingly perfect as it is? something to think about.
