I have Area. Good book, but the massive size of it makes it hard to enjoy. Plus the cover came apart the first day. Good stuff inside, though.

AREA is a real must have.
one of my most precious books!
- Crouwel0
must add that there are two versions. a soft-cover and a hard-cover. i got the cheap soft-cover. the hard-cover has, if i recall well, some extra inks and paper treatments on/in it!
