”A house without books is like a room without windows.” - Horace Mann
Inspiration, aspiration, new worlds, places unseen—these books deliver on all of it. Covering the best and most vibrant corners of travel, art, culture, design, and architecture, the high-quality hardcovers from Gestalten are things of beauty to be admired today and 50 years from now. Following the success of their first edition, Surf Shacks Volume 2 finds even more sand-covered, salt-crusted shelters where surfers rest their bodies and their boards after long days on the waves.
