The new "Life Style" books are published in eight different colors.

More manifesto than monograph, Life Style is the first book to document Bruce Mau’s creative process and his studio practice, Bruce Mau Design (BMD).
Designed by BMD, the book is a singular album of playful and critical statements about the visual and cultural trends that influence today’s media-driven context. from the first few pages, readers are exposed to the “global image economy”: a new world order characterized by the impact of sophisticated reproduction technology and by the proliferation of logos, printed advertisements, digitally manipulated imagery, celebrity culture, and electronic commerce among other late twentieth-century phenomena.
