The TASCHEN treatment: where an artist, subject, or concept is celebrated in its own vast, high definition tome. Buddhist scripture to big butt photography, the evolution of surfing the web to the history of surfing, TASCHEN have done it all.

But regardless of the subject, the care, enthusiasm, and obsessive attention to detail are always there. Flick through any TASCHEN title, and the quality of the paper, the visuals, the layouts is immediately clear.

And because they’re so big – some of their books are almost a metre long – they feel like portals into imaginative worlds. It’s so exciting to see something you love get its own TASCHEN tome.

Twice a year, TASCHEN offer a bumper sale. This year’s summer sale (7th -11th July) features iconic TASCHEN books like Helmut Newton, SUMO, Warhol on Basquiat, Amy Winehouse, and Blake Wood – offered at 25 – 75% off.
