Fuck off hipster wannabe

One more! Who would like scans?

>>10274139
It's a Nexus 6, which is priced the same as an iPhone 6 last time I checked.

>>10274165
It's a photography book you fucktard.

>>10274167

I paid 2,50 for one of those retail and brand new.

As far as Taschen goes they are pretty darn weak.
In terms of construction, paper and content.

fuck off fucking child

>>10274167

yeah those are shit tier

>>10274167
should of copped the Rizzoli, got it and open it up all the time.

>>10274167

It should be in a sleeve, also shit book, way below Taschen quality.

Which book for Rei/CDG?

The book was like 20 USD, so you can't expect the full quality of, say, Sumo. That said, the book is pretty decent for the price; the photography is mostly good and high resolution (there is some blurry shit included though) and the presentation is nice. I Really like the size and will probably get the Rick Owens and Raf Simons books.

Also, I'd say this is pretty decent for a Taschen book; they sure make some really shit quality ones (their film books? Eww).

>>10274247
>sleeve
I don't think so, I've seen several of this series at bookstores and none of them had sleeves.

>>10274246
It is the red one right? I will but it wasn't available.

>>10274327
Plastic sleeve.

This is a 25 euro taschen Book, pretty much all of those are printed in the EU, mostly Germany, this is from China.

SUMO is overrated hype, bought it in 2002 for 900 bucks, sold two years ago for 9,500, inflation.

Ah well, they are large and feature some cool pics.

>tfw Taschen fanboy.

Good that you're spending money on books, but please look in to less simplistic, tacky, materialistic photography.

>>10274391

Bookcase is by genre then author. That section is overflow Taschen area + one or two heavy design books.

>>10274394

I just wish they made SUMO size without them being limited edition or priced outrageously.

>>10274402
I do miss some buildings in that book but it definitely has some great buildings in it.

>>10274415
The Pink fashion ones? Yes but not stellar, good for the price although slightly below Taschen average. Can't hold a candle to Shigeru Ban or the Coop Himmelblau next to it, those are fucking amazing.

>simplistic, tacky, materialistic photography.

I'll grant you Uncle Terry, but if you seriously think that Avedon is any of what you said, you really don't know his work at all or are simple retarded.

>but please look in to
Fashion photography is not the only genre I buy. I own some Magnum books (including Contact Sheets), Genesis by Salgado, Exiles and Gypsies by Koudelka (Gypsies is fucking incredible, by the way), HCB books, Capa, Eve Arnold, Ansel Adams, etc…

>>10274109
Unboxing threads have been on /fa/ for a while, new shit.

>>10274100
Why do people buy physical books?

just to be a pretentious faggot and have them?

>>10274620

I like the feeling, smell and the handeling. Not everything has to be electronic in this day and age.

Also large format coffee table books can have some incredibly printed photos in massive sizes.

Good bookcase, but you've got a few shit books in there.

>>10274725

Was it Youp that betrayed me?

Name the shit ones, see if I agree, also very light on literature but for that I have my mother who has a modest library roughly the size of Northamptonshire

>>10274734

Youp was the first one that made me cringe.
Can't read all of the titles, but I spot two Gordon Ramsey books

>>10274620
Top kek
>being this retarded

>>10274185

Agreed. Taschen is just nice if you want another coffee table book that's a filler. The designer monographs they do are rather shallow and they're just nice because they're easy to find and in a nice, large format.

>>10274261

Lots of books on CdG are bunk and the good ones are super hard to find.

>>10274165
You cannot be effay and not read. Prove me wrong you cant

>>10275822

It really depends on the type of book. The little compendium's from Charlotte and Peter Fiell are very shallow, but then again they are pretty much catalogues.

Then you have books by Philip Jodidio (the really fat ones) that go pretty darn deep as far as design goes.

Then again I like Taschen's shallow and non-judgemental approach to describing design, I have quite a few books that are the complete opposite and usually only reflect the narrow opinionated mind of a single writer who probably had some beef with an architect after a cocktail party.

>>10274447
Architecture student. I have some of those books lmao.

This is old less sour youp, when he was still tolerable. Modern your is such a rehash.
The Ramsay cookbooks are pretty nice, great recipes, Gordon > Oliver.
