Do / Make: The Power of Your Own Two Hands

Do / Make: The Power of Your Own Two Hands - James Otter

We are all creators. From brewing morning coffee to folding a paper airplane, we find satisfaction in creating something that did not exist before. And it's not just about the result. Creation requires us to slow down and immerse ourselves in the process: it is a remedy for our fast-paced world. James Otter is an acclaimed maker of wooden surfboards with a passion for craftsmanship - and the ocean. In the book Do Make, he invites us to rediscover the joy of making. By using our hands to transform natural materials into beautiful and useful objects, we reconnect with our creativity, our environment, and ourselves. With incredible photographs, plenty of encouragement, and even instructions on how to make your own handplane for bodysurfing, the book Do Make reminds us that nothing beats the feeling of making something with our own hands.
