DPM: Can You See Me Now?

by Guy Brighton

PurplecamoIt’s not often that when a book lands on our doormat that we say, wow. And that’s not just because of the thump it made. The kind guys at DPM sent us through the most amazing book by Hardy Blechman. Blechman, founder and creative director of Maharishi spent 7 years into the vast world of camouflage.

Book1The 720 page book demonstrates how camouflage was adopted by the military and how that subsequently led to its current popular use in modern culture. Blechman documents how music, film, art, sport and fashion have borrowed from camouflage and even reinvented it. A 224 page accompanying book provides a comprehensive guide to the camouflage patterns used by soldiers from 107 different countries.

The book is stunning and an amazing inspiration to any follower of cultural trends.
