Pictures of books

i went to the library and picked out a few books which i liked and took photographs. Each book appealed to me for different reasons. I liked the one above due to it's shape and size.

This book, felt much more like a brochure/ magazine. It was relatively small, and thin. The main thing i liked about this book was the matt pages which felt almost like recycled paper.

This book really stood out as i loved the typography, the contents page and the numbers in particular. 

the two images above are of a book i pulled out as i was drawn to the textured cover. I am not sure i am able to achieve this effect with my book but it is something i would definitely like to consider.

the two images above show nice examples of typography i liked.

again, another book with a textured cover, this one was like fabric had been stretched over the cover.

I liked the simplicity of this book design, there is another image lower down which shows the front cover, i like the minimal high contrast black and white look.

I liked this book as it was small but really thick and chunky which allowed the spine of the book to host a photograph.

i liked this layout, quite modern, clean and simple. it's relatively graphic yet it doesn't distract from the image.

this one stood out due to the bright metallic gold cover.

again, another clean and simple layout i liked.

in contrast to the minimal look, i quite liked this layout also, more hectic and chaotic but equally as engaging, when viewing images in this format it is more of an interactive experience with our eyes tracing the pages taking in all the information, with layouts like the example above we spend more time with one image.

i loved the bind of this book, i like the typography and how it leaks over the sides.

another more chaotic but interesting layout, i like the way the images are displayed here.
