Architecture Editorial Review
The book "Super Normal: Sensations of the Ordinary" showcases a collection of everyday items that are Considered to be examples of good product design. The photos in the book were not taken specifically for it and lack detail, and some are out of focus. Despite this, the book was enjoyed by people in creative fields and those interested in minimalist design. The descriptions of the products lacked reasoning and research, which made it difficult for readers to learn about the "super normal" philosophy of design. Some reviewers felt that the book was just an exhibit catalogue and didn't offer anything new. While the topic may sound interesting, readers felt that they would be better off reading about it online rather than purchasing the book.
