A Different Kind of Picturebook

December 21st, 2008

Not too long ago I purchased a copy of William Burroughs’ The Ticket That Exploded purely based on the cover art.  Now I know most people consider the idea of buying a book based on its cover to be shallow and completely against one of the oldest adages in the world, but I beg to differ.  While I’d never recommend the book (trust me), I could handle the cover on any wall in my house!! With so many used bookstores, not to mention all the fabulous paperback reprints coming out these days, there is a plethora of untapped pint-sized art pieces that are waiting to be picked out of the bargain bin.

Now with this Totally Novel Picturebook Frame all your books will have a perfectly finished place on any wall, mantle, or shelf.  You can show off the novel that changed your life or just a cover from your favorite graphic designer!

More about Suck UK:

SUCK is not a craft based company, we design based on our knowledge of how, why, where and what is possible. We work closely with specialist manufacturers in many fields so we get the benefit of years of manufacturing expertise without having to physically learn the craft. As time passes a more recognizable SUCK Style is emerging and we are already ditching some of the earlier products which helped launch the company as we introduce newer ideas.

We have appeared in the usual interior mags and Sunday supplements. We have even represented the face of "contemporary design" on the BBC. Public reaction to our products was fantastic when we launched at Mode in June 2000 (we kept it quiet that everything at the show was only at the prototype stage and nobody seemed to notice!).

We have been presented an award for ‘Most Innovative New Product’ by Terence Conran (It took another ten months before The Conran Shop itself agreed to stock our stuff) and Best ‘In Show at MODE’. We are now represented in all the big ‘name’ department stores as well as loads of indie shops (who supported us from early on). We are never content however, and the next few months will see us release some of the best new products to come out of the UK in a long time… SUCK UK is products designed by Sam and Jude Central Saint Martins 96 (BA Product Design)

    It’s not clear to me how thick a paperback (inches or pages) it can accomodate? And I assume it’s designed for standard mass market paperback size?

    Thanks!

    Is it plastic or wood?

    Hello BB

    The PictureBook is made out of wood.

    Have a great day.
