BOOK - exciting world of pattern

as promised yesterday here is the second pattern book review. this is another newly released little book (approx 130cm square) called 'exciting world of pattern' and containing a selection of more than 700 different designs. published by a german company zeixs like yesterdays book there is no text except for a forward. the patterns are divided into themes such as animals, people, objects and geometrics. back in may last year there was a call for entries for this book on print & pattern so there are lots of designers in here we will recognise such as carolyn gavin, ana romero, and julia rothman. you can see it now on amazon uk sadly not yet on amazon usa. or try ordering from your usual seller with the number ISBN-10: 3939998397.

Hi Print and Pattern,
Some of my patterns are featured in this book. How can I get my hands on a copy? I live in the US. Have you heard if it will be available on amazon us anytime soon? Love your website!
Thanks,
WB

hi whitney,

im not sure when it will make it onto amazon usa, i think zeixs must be quite a small publisher so im not sure if they have us distribution.
maybe email them to ask the question. or you could order it from amazon uk, this is possible
with books but you will probably have to pay $10-$15 dollars for the shipping.
