Apple Releases Book of Product Photos for $200-300

Do you like the smooth, curvy rectangles and sleek designs of Apple products? Now you can have all of them on your coffee table:

Apple today announced the release of a new hardbound book chronicling 20 years of Apple's design, expressed through 450 photographs of past and current Apple products. "Designed by Apple in California," which covers products from 1998's iMac to 2015's Apple Pencil, also documents the materials and techniques used by Apple's design team over two decades of innovation.

The book is dedicated to the memory of Steve Jobs.

It makes the perfect holiday gift for the Apple lover in your life. And it even comes printed on "special paper":

The heavily illustrated book looks at Apple products from 1998's iMac to 2015's Apple Pencil. It documents the materials and techniques that Apple's designers used to make them. Photographer, Andrew Zuckerman, took the images. The title is dedicated to Steve Jobs. And it is, "printed on specially milled, custom-dyed paper with gilded matte silver edges, using eight color separations and low-ghost ink," Apple states. Special. Paper.

"The idea of genuinely trying to make something great for humanity was Steve's motivation from the beginning, and it remains both our ideal and our goal as Apple looks to the future," said Jony Ive, Apple's chief design officer (interestingly, Apple now seems to like to make job titles lower case).

    Slightly OT: 300$ for human-skin bound book is a great deal.
