Musings of a designer… The Good Life – Perceptions of the Ordinary, by the British designer Jasper Morrison. Charming new book by the designer presenting his seemingly benign observations from his life and travels. Intriguing images, all taken with his own analogue camera in combination with the 54-year-old’s dry and witty descriptions bring this curated collection of ordinary moments to life. Simple and entertaining to read, Morrison coaxes us to appreciating and revisiting the everyday pleasures of one’s life. Thanks, Jasper…
