Foundation: The Art and Making of Seasons 1 & 2 is the lavish coffee table book that fans of the show have been waiting for. This hardback illustrated tome delves into the incredible behind-the-scenes work that went into realising this galaxy-spanning epic.

Concept art, never-before-seen set photos, VFX models, and exclusive interviews with showrunner David S. Goyer, stars Jared Harris, Lee Pace, Lou Llobell, and Laura Birn, along with producers, directors, and crewmembers including production designer Rory Cheyne and VFX supervisor Chris MacLean, make this the ultimate guide to Foundation.

Foundation follows Hari Seldon, a psychohistorian who uses complex mathematics to predict the fall of the benevolent and all-powerful Galactic Empire. Seldon recruits Gaal Dornick, an intelligent young mathematician from faraway Synnax, to enact his plan to start a new colony.

Foundation chronicles this band of exiles on their monumental journey to save humanity and rebuild civilisation amid the fall of the Galactic Empire. Following an ensemble cast and a story that spans multiple timelines, this truly epic series adapts Isaac Asimov’s beloved novels to the screen.
