"How It Is" by Nicolas Burrows
$24.00
This spiral-bound paperback book by London-based artist Nicolas Burrows is for children and anyone young at heart. Its narrative sequences play with the concepts of sound and color through lively illustrations and easy language that combine to reinterpret our world. His imagining of the natural environment lends a fresh perspective on how we see, hear, touch and experience the everyday. It’s a warm, charmingly naive encouragement of curiosity, observation and appreciation for the simple things in life.

These carefully chosen and crafted pieces represent a considered mix of the esoteric and the highly pragmatic. Many of these simple things reflect the hand of the artisan or the quiet genius of the inventor. They are useful in ways that are difficult to quantify but, if pressed, we would say they make life a little more efficient and a lot more beautiful.
