Size Does Matter!
Prepare to be blown away by S&C‘s selection of 15 books from the only Taschen Publisher that highlight the size and visual strength of the X and XXL editions! Let’s set aside some “me-time” this holiday season to read this great compilation. Finally, with these massive editions, size does matter.
1. Leonardo. The Complete Paintings and Drawings
“Opening this lavishly illustrated book is a sumptuous celebration of the visual aspects of Leonardo’s œuvre.” – The Art Newspaper –
Presented by Melandas Indonesia
2. Ultimate Collector Motorcycles
“…a hell of a lot of book. Firstly in its sheer physical scale and secondly for the wonderful delights within. There’s fact, insight and period pictures for the 100 bikes covered, with amazing contemporary photography and truly fabulous full-page details. Expect to lose days just simply gawping.” – Bike Magazine –
3. Shoes A-Z. The Collection of The Museum at FIT. Manolo Blahník Edition
“Shoes are a language; they speak of our identity. They delight and shock, captivate, cajole, and appall. They heighten us, embolden us, dictate the very way we move. They are also surely one of life’s great joys.” – Daphne Guinness –
4. Jean Nouvel by Jean Nouvel. 1981–2022
“Nearly 800 pages of work within a colossal new book.” – designboom –
5. Small Houses
“The house if short twice good. A game of words to pay tribute to small houses, as does this TASCHEN book entitled Small Houses and which brings together examples of houses that do not exceed a hundred meters.” – Architecture and Design –
6. Yoshihiro Narisawa. Satoyama Cuisine
“…a glorious visual journey through famed Japanese chef Yoshihiro Narisawa’s edible innovations […] This elaborately packaged book is as beautiful as the food it depicts — sublime, ornate, and almost too perfect to be believed.” – Departures –
7. The History of Graphic Design. Vol. 2
“An unrivaled catalogue of 3500 key pieces. A wonderful edition, absolutely indispensable, whose two volumes are presented at a very affordable price”. – Visual Things –
8. Marvel Comics Library. Spider-Man. Vol. 2. 1965–1966
“TASCHEN’s Marvel Comics Library represents a sincere respect and appreciation for comics history.” – Comic Book Resources –
9. The Making of Stanley Kubrick’s ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’
“TASCHEN have done Stanley Kubrick proud, again.” – Film Chronicles –
10. Norman Foster
“As an architect you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future which is essentially unknown.” – Norman Foster –
11. Lynn Goldsmith. Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band
“..unprecedented access to Springsteen and cohorts, all of whom (Goldsmith) captures in intimate, surprising moments.” – Billboard –
12. Surfing. 1778-today
“The undisputed bible of surf culture.” – Vogue –
13. Ando. Complete Works 1975–Today
“An influential architect’s austere, ingenious work in a stunning monograph.” – Details Magazine –
14. Anna Atkins. Cyanotypes
“…a luminous new edition.” – Harper’s Bazaar –
15. Stephen Wilkes. Day to Night
“…a vibrant tome… it’s supernatural panoramas are the definition of eye candy.” – Architectural Digest –
