According to their website:
This book presents a new approach to a design discipline that is one of the most challenging. Packaging is to a product as a dwelling or clothing is to a human being: its first utility is protection, but it can also be used to display and convey the charm and characteristics of what lies within. Limited Edition is a collection created in recent years and it's full of fresh ideas that utilize an incredible variety of unusual shapes, dimensions and materials. Categories covered include clothes, shoes, cosmetics, food, books, CDs, DVDs, toys, and more, and there is an enlightening essay by Daniel Mason on Environmental Responsibility for Designers and Manufacturers. Limited Edition is the product of a collaboration between ten international designers that include Kazutomo Ryuko, SK Lam, Andrew Thomas, Shin Sasaki and Ann Kelly. Also features packaging design from Cardboy, Michael Lau, Devilrobots and more!The book is 256 pages long and includes an incredible 550 color illustrations! I'm not sure if the book is a Limited Ed. print or if it is just the title of the book, but either way, I'd sure like to get my greasy mitts on one. That would show them!
BTW, what's with the crazy big border around the picture of the book cover? Weird.

I don't know fer shure, but it's not appearing at the size that it's designated in the code.... In any case, I sure would like to buy a couple hundred copies of this book and send it to members of the New Orleans diaspora, I'm sure they would get hours of entertainment out of it.
