313 : tree of codes

This amazing book, Tree of Codes by Jonathan Safran Foer totally pushes book design to new levels. When you flip it open each page is die cut to have only a few words exposed. Not surprisingly, they had a hard time finding a printer since each page has a different die cut...ie: the book was crazy expensive to produce. But it's really nice to see people more concerned with design than cost; that's when some of the most creative solutions come out.

A bonus is that the book actually sounds interesting. And at only $26 bucks on amazon, I think I may need to own this soon.
