    Art. Lebedev Studio has released a book by photographer Todd McLellan entitled "Down to the Last Screw 2.0: A Guide to Assembling Modernity." In this publication, the author displays industrial design objects, both modern and outdated, disassembled into detail. The book provides a unique opportunity to look at familiar objects from a new perspective, focusing on their design elements and functionality. This publication will be of interest not only to photography enthusiasts but also to design professionals seeking a deeper understanding of the creation and evolution of everyday objects.

    With permission from the publisher, we present several images from the book, which examines a rotary telephone, a laptop, an accordion, and a refrigerator. All devices are shown disassembled, allowing for a deeper understanding of their construction and internal mechanisms. These visual materials provide a unique opportunity to see how these familiar objects work.
