WHAT IS GOOD?//PARIS: PUBLICATION/TRAVEL GUIDE RESEARCH//OUGD505

PHAIDON TRAVEL GUIDE: PARIS

After the crit Simon told me to look into Phaidon Wallpaper city guides, I have looked more into the style and some ideas into what the content of mine could be.


OVERVIEW
  • A new concept in city guides
  • Tightly edited and ruthlessly researched, for the discerning traveller who wants a true taste of the best a city has to offer
  • Rigorously selected, the guides include the ultimate places to enjoy art and architecture and to sleep, eat, drink, shop, exercise and relax
