Found Books

Found this great website with a bunch of free downloads: AvaxHome
I downloaded a few books:










The paper engineering one was accidental, i was attracted by the cover, i have never thought about doing pop up. But i plan to explore areas im not interested in because for sure i will be fascinated with something about it. I've been encouraged to do that by Keri Smith's words: read a book you don't think you will like. I don't know if the pop up book can be applied, because im actually interested. But there are plenty i dont find interesting so i plan on exploring the uninteresting more often.

The first book was photographed by hand so the quality is horrible. It's readable but its so obvious that it wasnt scanned that its distracting. It's kind of ironic, a book about design having such a poor presentation. The cost you pay for downloading free books.
