The Good Life: Perceptions of the Ordinary

$30.00

What makes us pause and notice the seemingly mundane? In this collection of photo essays, renowned designer Jasper Morrison explores the hidden narratives behind everyday scenes—a broken flowerpot, twin tables standing side by side, a garden hose coiled around an old car wheel. With a keen eye for detail and a curiosity for the overlooked, Morrison invites us to reflect on the stories these ordinary objects tell, uncovering the beauty and meaning woven into the fabric of everyday life.
