The latest adult toys, jewelry, and accessories from leading companies, as well as intriguing prototypes, are featured. Including a foreword by Sarah Forbes, curator at New York City’s Museum of Sex, and in-depth interviews with leading sex bloggers, shop owners, and designers, the book will appeal to both fans of good design as well as "lovers" of good design interested in acquiring these pieces for their own collections.. Each product, from high-tech gadgets to handcrafted pieces of art, is presented with concise descriptions in a minimal graphic format that emphasizes the flowing curves, materiality, and overall design of the products. The world of erotic product design is revealed in this curated showcase of over 100 beautifully crafted objects and the creative minds behind them. Once taboo, sex toys are in the midst of a design revolution
