Buying a kitchen?
Selling kitchens?
It’s the most expensive room in the home and full of hard technical and aesthetic choices, yet there has never been a comprehensive guide to designing, buying and selling kitchens in the UK.
Until now.
Over 25 years working with the country’s largest and smallest retailers, Ian M. Palmer has designed and sold thousands of kitchens. With over 300 unique illustrations, The Heart of the Home packs his knowledge and experience into one essential and authoritative text – for anyone buying, selling or just interested in kitchens.
We went to Space. Then we went to war.
2323 was the year the Aligned Intelligent Species fell apart, and Earth fell prey to invasion. Battles were fought in Space and on a hundred worlds, on land and underwater. Humanity was unprepared, and victory by no means assured…
In a 100-page tribute to the classic 1970s collections of SF cover art, 2323: The First Terran Galactic War stitches together more than 300 spectacular colour artworks, 3D and AI, into a tale of interstellar conflict – remembering the future as it used to be.
From the introduction by the Human History Society:
For generations Before Space, humans shared information by way of physical books: text and images stained into flexible plaques of compressed vegetable matter. For this first publication of the Human History Society, we thought it fitting to reproduce this charming format as closely as we could.
The Society was formed to bring together professionals and enthusiasts with shared interests in those niches of Human history either overlooked by formal academy, or too long settled into orthodox points of view. The so-called First Human Galactic War may seem a topic covered all too thoroughly already; but many of our members feel that it has been cast into a context of inevitable social progress which may not be appropriate – that is, wholly truthful. One such member is amateur spaceship historian Ian M. Palmer.
Copiously illustrated in full colour with painted, 3D-rendered and AI-generated images, 2323: The First Human Galactic War offers a unique perspective on this pivotal conflict.
No Name. No Memory. One Friend. SHOOT TO KILL.
In 2009, RIVER: skin on the outside used innovative 3D technology to tell the story of a nigh-indestructible man who crawled out of a New York waterway and took on a powerful organisation to discover his origins.
Available then only through 3D marketplaces, it now appears for the first time in a physical Amazon edition.
This new edition includes all 4 issues of RIVER: skin on the outside, plus the 22-page sequel, RIVER: something to lose.
