Reviews

[Nancy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sumptuous! Super smooth paper and all those shiny pictures. Just enough text to tell you what's what (and remind you that artists' statements aren't usually a designer's forte), and a satisfying range of projects (from bike shoes with a built-in pant cuffs to way fancy airplanes).

Most likely to succeed? As far as I'm concerned, it's Pearsonlloyd's "Universal Hear-Ring" -- hearing aids that are as fun and glamorous as we let our eyeglasses get.
