Editorial Review for Taschen – by Keith Wagstaff
In Short
From behind a glass facade, walls bursting with swirls of bright, psychedelic color entice shoppers passing by on Soho's grey cobblestone streets. Inside, the Philippe Starck-designed store features a variety of visually fascinating Taschen titles, running the gamut from exorbitantly expensive to surprising affordable. The quirky German publisher proudly displays books on Picasso, filmmaker Luis Buñuel and Japanese architecture next to titles on Playboy centerfolds and tattoos.
Editorial content is independent of paid advertisers. Any expenses are paid for by Citysearch.

Fabulous, unique books and now I don't have to order them from the Left Coast. Can't wait to check out the SoHo space.
