Review: Off Amazing - I am an aspiring texture designer, and this is what I plan to study when I head to college. I wanted to get this book, Virgil Abloh: Figures of Speech, so that I could learn how he came to such great success as a designer through his creation of Pyrex and Off White. This book shows tons of his released and unreleased artwork. You can find pictures of ‘The Ten’ which are the ten shoes that Virgil collaborated with Nike with to change the game of high fashion. These shoes take the Jordan 1 model and the Air Force 1, deconstructing them, and turning them into masterpieces. Virgil is a one of the kind creators. The book also features his signature quotations on the side which says, “Personal Copy” which adds the true Virgil touch to the book. It comes in a very protective case which will keep your copy safe from dust, along with wear and tear of the corners. One of the most unique parts of the book is this design ruler that he has placed in the book to resemble a cloth bookmark. It ties the whole book together showing you that it is truly meant for designers. In 3rd section of the book you can see all of the furniture that Virgil has created with IKEA for the whole new age scene. They are very abstract and unique, nothing like I have ever seen before. It ranges from different arrangements of mirrors to chairs and tables. One of his chairs looks like any other wooden chair, but one of the legs has been cut off near the bottom inch or so and has been replaced with a wooden wedge. In the book, Virgil elaborates on how it is so amazing that a wobbly chair can simply be fixed with a tiny wooden wedge. I don’t have much appreciation for his furniture designs, but every time he does seem to drop a release people go bananas over it no matter what it is. In this book it shows much more than just his clothing that he has designed. The book includes more than 1900 pictures, a number of essays that discuss race, his art history, streetwear designs, and high fashion designs alike. You can find his designs for the stores he has made for his products and why he chose each abstract layout. The book is truly amazing and worth the money. I plan to read the whole book in the week to come. The book is truly worth the buy if you are a fan of Virgil’s work.
Review: Must have for the Virgil fans - RIP Virgil
