Made to Last: A Compendium of Artisans, Trades & Projects

Celebrating artisanal crafts and enduring workmanship.

If you're yearning for the tactile satisfaction that comes from appreciating things well-made, "Made to Last" could fit like a glove on your bookshelf. Vanessa Murray takes you on a global journey, unveiling the rich narratives behind the artisans who are keeping age-old trades alive. Along with learning their stories, you can roll up your sleeves with the hands-on projects inside. It's an invitation to not just admire craftsmanship, but be part of it.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

In a world full of mass production and copyright infringement, there is a movement emerging that is focused on sourcing unique and independently created products that are made to last. This title is a celebration of these unique products and the tradespeople behind their creation. Made to Last showcases some of the weird and wonderful products being created today – from whiskey tumblers to mushroom knives, men's shoes and bamboo bikes – with profiles of their makers and related DIY projects that invite readers to act on their inspiration and get making themselves. These DIY suggestions are as varied as the products themselves, from how to treat and care for wood furniture to making your own canvas lunch bag. The book's own beautiful design ensures that it, too, is truly made to last.
