I went on the first day of the 2009 Manila International Book Fair (MIBF) and aside from having a photo taking with Rex (the book mascot) I bought myself a copy of BOX.
It’s a book zipped in a clothed yellow box with embossed silhouettes of various designer characters feature in the book. It’s a Chinese publication – many English language errors and the way it listed Hongkong and Taiwan as “Taiwan, China” and “Hong Kong, China” made it clear! But for something that came in a zipper box it also was relatively cheap, I suppose??
The cool thing is that it has a special offer for hopeful illustrators and designers…
Check it out.
You can submit to them to get into their next Box release. They feature all sorts, but they haven’t featured anybody from the Philippines. You can read the entire offer here as a graphic.
As a disclaimer, I’m in no way related to this publisher and you submit at your own risk of your design being pirated en masse by unscrupulous Chinese manufacturers. :p
