BESESSEN Die geheime Kunst des Polsterns Upholstered seating is familiar to all of us as a more or less constant companion in everyday life. Upholstery conveys a sense of security and promises comfort, suggests or creates status, and tells a (hi)story. We barely give a thought to its interior. Yet a glimpse inside the chairs and armchairs is a journey into secrets, of lashed and sprung constructions, which prove to be unknown masterpieces of craftsmanship. DEEP-SEATED: The Secret Art of Upholstery traces pieces of furniture and their inner details and illustrates why upholstery is a constant constituent of cultural and social history. From the Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Classicism, Historicism, and Art Nouveau to designs by Arne Jacobsen and Alvar Aalto, the history of upholstered furniture is traced up to the present day. It also includes a closer examination of the corresponding tools, textiles, braiding, tassels, and cushions. All this accumulated knowledge is summarized at the end in an extensive glossary for reference.

Josef Franz Maria Hoffmann (15 December 1870 ? 7 May 1956) was an Austrian architect and designer, involved in the founding of the Vienna Secession and the central figure of the Wiener Werkstätte which he founded in 1903. Among his best-known designs is the Stoclet Palace in Brussels, the pinnacle of Art Nouveau. His preference for squares and cubes (for Cubism) is characteristic, which earned him the nickname Quadratl-Hoffmann. His style gradually became more austere and abstract and his work became limited over time to functional, household attributes.

Small quato in white paper backed baords illus in b&w; 331 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 25 cm. No jacket, as issued. "For almost twenty years the SoHo design gallery MOSS was the place where design, art, money, and glamour mixed. Murray Moss, the impresario behind the shop, and his partner, Franklin Getchell, were the leading arbiters of good taste and the new--launching the careers of now-established designers such as Studio Job and Maarten Baas while bringing back into fashion eighteenth-century porcelain and Tupperware. By mixing high and low MOSS shifted the design conversation from the galleries of MoMA to a storefront in SoHo. Please Do Not Touch is their witty insider confessions of that exciting time. Natural storytellers, Moss and Getchell effortlessly weave entertaining and revealing tales that take the reader behind the scenes of MOSS's famous opening night parties and spectacular projects and partnerships with never-before-seen photographs from their personal archives. A memoir by two legends of modern design, Please Do Not Touch is sure to become a "bible" for cognoscenti and students alike--transporting lovers of modern design back to the time when high design first broke all barriers."--Pubisher. || Interior decoration -- New York (State) -- New York.

Hardback, 310x250mm, 144p, full colour colour illustrations, English/ French/ German edition . ISBN 9789058561336. Expo: 29/4/2006 - 25/6/2006 -previously announced-, Designmuseum, Gent Dit boek overbrugt een periode van meer dan 25 jaar en toont aan hoe de rol van product design geevolueerd is doorheen het werk van Enthoven Associates, een design consultancy uit Antwerpen (B). De basis van het boek is de beschrijving van vijf periodes aan de hand van visueel materiaal over de producten die ontwikkeld werden in die periode en van achtergrondverhalen van bevoorrechte waarnemers. Het toont ook hoe de diensten van design consultants veranderd zijn, net zoals design zelf: van de visie van een individuele ontwerper tot de gecombineerde deskundigheid van de leden van een team, van een eerder kunstzinnige blik op producten uit het dagelijkse leven tot een veel complexere toegevoegde waarde die kunst met technologie combineert of ethische waarden met marketing concepten. De laatste periode in het boek is de toekomst. Een concept rond de keuken van de toekomst, uitgevoerd in Living Tomorrow Amsterdam, en een onderzoeksproject rond 'ouder worden' illustreren de visie van Enthoven Associates op de rol van design voor het volgende decennium. This special book tides over a period of thirty years and show how the role of product design has evolved through the work of Enthoven Associates, an internationally operating design consultancy in Antwerp, led by Alain Denis, Axel Enthoven and Jean-Pierre Geelen. The services of design consultants have thoroughly changed, and the same goes for design itself: from the vision of an individual designer to the combined expertise of the members of a team, from a more artistic view on products from the daily life to a much more complex added value that combines art with technology or ethical values with marketing concepts. All these things are exemplified by a historical overview and dozens of detailed cases like the Magiq bus, the Brussels tram, the Genio bed, Living Tomorrow, the Ethnicraft chair, products for Tupperware
Hardback, 230x230mm, 156p, English / Dutch (NL) edition , new condition. . ISBN 9789058562357. Het surrealisme mag dan vooral gekend zijn als stroming binnen de literatuur en schone kunsten, toch is de invloed van deze 20e-eeuwse kunstrichting op andere domeinen niet te onderschatten. Ook de wereld van de vormgeving en het hedendaagse design ontsnapt niet aan een gezonde portie surreele humor. Forms with a smile bundelt ontwerpen en objecten van moderne surrealisten en toont aan dat niets is wat het lijkt. Harige tapijten, lampen in de vorm van een melkfles, usb-sticks gesneden uit houten takken of zetels gemaakt uit pluchen troeteldieren. Is het puur humor? Of is het een prikkelend statement verpakt in een aanstekelijke glimlach? Net zoals het surrealisme vertelt design soms meer dan we denken. Gewapend met subtiele ironie trekken deze nieuwe surrealisten ten strijde in een wereld waar een zekere serieux regeert. ----- Today surrealism may be firstly known as a school in literature and fine arts, but the influence of this 20th-century school on other domains cannot be underestimated. The world of contemporary design doesn't escape a healthy portion of surreal humour. Forms with a smile bundles designs and objects of modern surrealists and shows that nothing is what it seems to be. Hairy carpets, lamps in the shape of a milk bottle, USB sticks cut from wood branches or chairs made from plush toys. Is it just humour? Or is it a stimulating statement wrapped in a contagious smile? Just like surrealism, design sometimes tells more than we think. Armed with subtle irony these new surrealists wage war against a world reigned by a certain serieux.

Wat moeten we ons voorstellen bij een 'Design Derby' tussen Nederland en België van 1815 tot 2015? Is er eigenlijk sprake van een karakteristieke Nederlandse of Belgische identiteit in het design? En hoeveel weten we over elkaars geschiedenis? Precies twee eeuwen geleden, in 1815, werd het Verenigd Koninkrijk der Nederlanden opgericht. Gedurende vijftien jaar werden Nederland en België door de grote Europese staten tot een eenheid gedwongen onder de bezielende leiding van koning Willem I. Deze rijk geïllustreerde publicatie laat aan de hand van talloze bijzondere objecten zien waartoe de twee landen op het gebied van vormgeving in de loop van tweehonderd jaar in staat zijn geweest. Variërend van meubelen, keramiek, glas, textiel, grafisch ontwerp, mode tot huishoudelijke apparaten, wordt geïllustreerd hoe wooncultuur, economie en politiek het karakter van de vormgeving voortdurend laten evolueren.

The Furniture of Poul Kjaerholm: Catalogue Raisonne is the comprehensive and definitive reference work on one of the most important and profound designers of the twentieth century.

Helmer-Petersen was Kjaerholm's creative partner for three decades and documented his furniture and exhibitions over this period. Sheridan's biographical essay traces and discusses the development of Kjaerholm's formal vision over the course of his career. Supplementary information includes a timeline of production dates, manufacturer information, notes on materials and maintenance and production stamps. The book was compiled with the assistance of the Kjaerholm family and includes a foreword by Hanne Kjaerholm. It was designed by Takaaki Matsumoto, one of the most respected designers of art books in the world. Printed entirely in black-and-white duotone, the many archival photographs in the book are reproduced in the finest quality. Destined to become a model for the field of design, The Furniture of Poul Kjaerholm is an instant classic and an essential reference for readers interested in furniture, interior design and the history of Modern architecture and design. 9788791607271

Een thuis zou een oase moeten zijn, een veilige haven die geluk en vreugde uitstraalt Al een halve eeuw creëert de wereldbefaamde kunsthandelaar en interieurvormgever Axel Vervoordt met zijn bedrijf unieke woningen over de hele wereld. Hij vindt zijn inspiratie in verschillende culturen en tijdperken. Vandaag vloeien in de projecten van Vervoordt traditionele, wabi- en hedendaagse elementen samen. Deze elementen zijn tegelijk verankerd in het verleden en verbonden met de toekomst. Dit boek brengt zeventien uiteenlopende residenties samen, waaronder de allereerste Vervoordt-projecten in Japan, Rusland en India, maar ook stedelijke penthouses in New York en Londen, een wabi-schuur in Vlaanderen, een Venetiaans palazzo, een toevluchtsoord op Ibiza en een huis aan de kust van New England. Elk huis ademt een unieke en serene sfeer uit en verbindt op de typische Vervoordt-manier kunst met architectuur en natuur
