Perfect Paper Mosaics
Attractive, fun, and flexible, paper mosaics are a fabulous new way to decorate furniture, spruce up a picture frame, transform a tea tray, or embellish a book cover. And because they use many of the same tools as scrapbooking and rubber-stamping, crafters who already enjoy those arts will find the 10 techniques introduced here a perfect fit. The skills proceed from simple to more complicated, starting with the basic process of backing the paper with poster board, cutting the tiles, gluing the pieces, and sealing and protecting the finished product. Page after page reveals colorful and unique items, including coasters, refrigerator magnets, tissue box holders, a backgammon board, wall hangings, a lidded box, a lampshade, clocks, and decorative mirrors.

Minimum by John Pawson, ISBN 0714838179
This extraordinary visual essay explores the notion of 'minimum', a concept which is rooted in the pursuit of simplicity, as applied to architecture, art and design; it is the quality that a building or object possesses when every component, every detail and every junction has been reduced or condensed to its essentials. Now itself condensed, Minimum is available for the first time as a pocket edition.
This book, designed and compiled by the minimalist architect John Pawson, captures the essential qualities of particular kinds of simplicity. This is illustrated by architecture, ranging from prehistoric Mexico and Ancient Egypt to the high Modernism of Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe; art, from the Dutch School to Donald Judd; the photography of Robert Mapplethorpe and Bill Brandt; and furniture and pottery. With its broad spread across time and a wide geographical area, Minimum seeks to analyse the elements of simplicity and capture them in print.
