From sleeping on a ledge high above the Grand Canyon to paddleboarding through the remote Åland Islands in the Baltic sea, artist and designer David Trubridge has relished journeying far and wide, camera in hand. 

In his latest book The Other Way readers travel with Trubridge as he reflects on our relationship to the planet’s diverse natural spaces in both image and text. Trubridge’s ‘other way’ involves turning his back on cities, instead looking to create a sense of reciprocity and belonging with this fragile earth. 

Trubridge is best known for his internationally acclaimed lighting and furniture design. His first book, So Far was published in 2015.
