Tangram celebrates awe-inspiring expression across all creative disciplines. Volume 2 is organized around the theme of "spaces" and features an eclectic cast of artists, tinkerers, scientists, and eccentrics including Robert J. Lang (origami engineer), Arthur Ganson (kinetic sculptor), Elora Hardy (bamboo architect), Jeff Lieberman (wonder seeker), Chiharu Shiota (installation artist), Reuben Margolin (wave maker) and John Edmark (spiral designer).

Joseph ★★★★★

The "spaces" theme ties everything together so well—each contributor brings a completely different take on the same idea, and it never feels repetitive. I flipped through it twice in one sitting and found something new to admire each page turn.

Christopher P. ★★★★★

The mix of contributors across art and science is what sold me, and the "spaces" section has some genuinely wild spreads I keep flipping back to. The book itself feels substantial, the kind you leave out on the coffee table on purpose.

Ryan V. ★★★★★

The "spaces" theme ties the whole thing together beautifully, and the mix of artists and scientists keeps every turn of the page surprising. I've already flipped through it twice just to catch details I missed the first time.
