Hardcover, 26 x 21 cm, 160 p., 300 illustraties, Engels, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9789058563026. Danny Venlet (?°1958, Victoria, Australia) is een van ?s werelds beste en meest veelbelovende designers; toch is zijn werk een goed bewaard geheim in de designwereld. Dit is enerzijds te wijten aan het feit dat Venlet in twee verschillende werelden (Australie en Belgie) gewerkt en geleefd heeft, maar is anderzijds ook te verklaren door de essentie van zijn persoonlijkheid en werk ? bescheiden, geneigd tot understatements, en relaxed. Hoewel Venlet algemeen beschouwd wordt als de uitvinder van een ?afgerond?, eerder ?organisch? en ?menselijk? minimalisme, beperkt hij zich als designer en interieurarchitect niet tot een enkele stijl. Een allesomvattend overzicht van een twintigjarige loopbaan, die niet alleen een revolutie veroorzaakte in de wereld van kantoor-, buiten- en residentiele meubels (met bekroonde creaties zoals de ?Easy Rider? en de ?Viteo? douche), maar tevens ook een totaal nieuw concept van interieurarchitectuur introduceerde, waarin objecten en gebruikers niet langer gedomineerd worden door de ruimte, maar vice versa.

Hardcover, 192 pages, ENG / FR, 310 x 225 x 25 mm, NEW , illustrated in colour. ISBN 9782376660743. The 80s vibrate with energy. In their whirlwind, a generation of creators has emerged, carrying arts of living different from those of the past: Mark Brazier-Jones, Franck Evennou, Elizabeth Garouste, Marco de Gueltzl, Hubert Le Gall, Thierry Peltrault, Laurence Picot, Andrea Salvetti or even Claude de Wulf. In order to give flesh to this period in France, this book has collected the words of a witness of its actors, Elisabeth Delacarte whose Avant-Scène gallery is one of the few to have survived until today. For almost 40 years, it has defended singular artists who have become essential in their field. From France to England, Italy or Russia, the elaborate portraits dedicated to them evoke the atmosphere and the news that accompany them. Each embodies the importance of artistic craftsmanship, and all take particular paths in order to express universal emotions in their own way. The great subjects of today are declined along their course. We discover upcycling ahead of time with the fiery Marco de Gueltzl and the beginnings of the libertine punk Mark Brazier-Jones, the vital need for nature in the works of Frank Evennou or the sculptor chef Andrea Salvetti, the romanticism advocated by Laurence Picot, the joyful poetry of Elizabeth Garouste, the humorous fantasy of Hubert Le Gall. They have in common to have changed their lives to devote themselves to art furniture. This is also the case of Elisabeth Delacarte. His personal point of view illuminates from the inside the changes in the decorative arts at the end of the 20th century. Staging the productions of each artist, decoration projects punctuate the book and leave room for contemplation.

The Vitra Design Museum collection, which counts among the world?s largest of its kind with upwards of 20,000 objects, including over 7,000 pieces of furniture, serves as the basis for »Atlas of Furniture Design«. The publication includes works by the most significant designers of the past 230 years and documents all important stages of design history. This includes 19th century furniture made out of bentwood and metal, Art Nouveau and Secession style designs, iconic designs by protagonists of modernism such as Le Corbusier, Gerrit Rietveld, Charlotte Perriand, Marcel Breuer, and Eileen Gray, but also post-war, post-modern, and contemporary furniture by designers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen, Gae Aulenti, Finn Juhl, Ettore Sottsass, Philippe Starck, Hella Jongerius, Jasper Morrison, and Konstantin Grcic. The »Atlas of Furniture Design« is the product of over 20 years of research at the Vitra Design Museum and was compiled by a team of more than 70 authors. It contains comprehensive essays on the socio-cultural and design-historical contexts of furniture design, over 550 detailed texts on pioneering objects, and numerous information graphics that provide new visual insights into the history of furniture design. Furthermore, the book contains a complete appendix that includes designer biographies, bibliographies, a glossary of producers and materials, as well as a keyword index. These features make this publication an encyclopedic reference guide and indispensable resource for collectors, scholars, and experts, and without a doubt a book to be treasured by design lovers all over the world. »The Atlas of Furniture Design is a treasure trove that offers not only definitive information about beloved staples of design history, but also new, fresh and often unexpected perspectives, all presented in a generous format that captures the breadth and depth of this important subject.« Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator of Architecture and Design, The Museum of Modern Art Mateo Kries, director of the Vitra Design Museum and co-editor of the publication, explains: »The Atlas paints a portrait of our entire collection while simultaneously providing an unprecedented overview of the history of modern furniture. The publication is set up to provide a new comprehensive outline for scholars of furniture design by considering the latest academic research, questioning extant knowledge, and giving top experts a platform to share their ideas. The book touches on a range of subjects spanning the beginnings of industrialization to digitalization, which is becoming increasingly influential in contemporary furniture design. Whether as a selection of iconic designs or as a history of styles, a chronicle of evolution or of revolution, a history of objects or of images, or a narrative of domestic habits or of individual designers, this book can be read in a vast range of ways. But the »Atlas of Furniture Design« can also be enjoyed by readers who prefer to dispense with complex theories and just want to concentrate on each single object.«
hardbound, relie sous jaquette, 24 x 28 cm, 300 pages, 700 illustrations couleur, neuf !!. ISBN 9782915545455. Cette premiere monographie consacree a Matali Crasset retrace les vingt dernieres annees du parcours d?une des creatrices les plus renommees du design international. De l?objet a l?architecture, le travail de Matali Crasset interroge a la maniere d?un sociologue le role du design dans la vie quotidienne et redefinit les modes d?usage, les modes de vie et les interactions humaines. Diplomee des Ateliers-ENSCI en 1991, Matali Crasset garde de son passage chez le designer italien Denis Santachiara un interet pour les nouvelles technologies. Des son retour a Paris, elle developpe cette experience de design electronique lorsqu?elle collabore pendant cinq ans avec Philippe Starck, devenant responsable de Tim Thom, la structure de design integree de la societe Thomson Multimedia, et en 1996 lorsque le VIA lui donne carte blanche pour son projet de mobilier domestique informatique W at Hom. Sa maison-atelier, qu?elle installe en 1998 a Belleville au milieu de petits jardins dans une ancienne imprimerie, est propice a la reflexion et a la recherche. Elle y cree des objets souvent transformables proposant des solutions originales saluees par la critique pour leur caractere fonctionnel, poetique, imaginaire et recreatif. Parmi les innombrables realisations, on peut citer : la colonne d?hospitalite Quand Jim monte a Paris ou le canape-aire de jeux Permis de construire pour Domeau
relie, de toile, 23x30.5cm, 400 pages ., 600 illustrations couleur et noir et blanc Texte en Francais. ISBN 9782915542042. Jean-Michel Frank (1895-1941) est une figure mythique des arts decoratifs. Son style qualifie de ?« luxe pauvre » est tout aussi paradoxal que sa vie entre fetes et solitude, avec des amities fideles pour des poetes, des artistes qui ont ete determinants dans l?elaboration de son esthetique, mais aussi ses clients, gens du monde, de la mode ou intellectuels. Les contraignant a se defaire de leurs objets, de leurs tableaux et de leurs tapis, Frank a invente pour eux des lieux propices a la meditation et au reve, un mobilier d'une simplicite parfaite, proche d?un neoclassicisme francais depouille de ses ornements. Indifferent aux grands debats de la premiere moitie d'un XXe siecle, Jean-Michel Frank n?a cherche ni a construire un nouveau monde ni a se raccrocher a un passe nostalgique. Avec elegance, il a casse les conventions, nettoye les lieux de leur histoire. Peut-etre est-ce ce melange de legerete et de rigueur, de reve et de poesie, ce detournement tres actuel des objets et des materiaux qui ont amene tant de decorateurs et de designers contemporains a se reclamer de lui.

Softcover, 127 pages. 2010. illustrated, IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE. ISBN 9789529878680. Proceeding from an international perspective and various starting points, Essays on Finnish Modernism approaches phenomena in Finnish architecture and design that entail the problematic of modernism. The themes of the book are the main elements of modernism, such as the emergence and development of mass production, changes in consumer habits, improvements to the quality of life and emphasis in design on the problems of increased equality. Although modernism was introduced into Finland around the turn of the 1920s and 1930s, modern design did not become part of the lives of ordinary consumers until the 1950s, as the Secon Wold War halted the developments that had begun in the 1930s. Modernism is of topical interest. In 2009, the anniversary of the bauhaus School was celebrated in Germany. Founded by the architect Walter Gropius in Weimar in 1919, the Bauhaus has remained, despite its small scope and brief duration, a symbol of modernism and its most prominet torchbearer.

Hardcover, 305 x 230 mm, 400 pages, 600 illustrations,French edition. ISBN 9782376660286. L'oeuvre foisonnante de Pierre Guariche (1926-1995) accompagne les Trente Glorieuses comme les grands changements administratifs et sociétaux des années 1980. Formé par Marcel Gascoin, Guariche débute en 1951 comme décorateur-créateur de modèles indépendant. Il conçoit pendant près de vingt ans un mobilier novateur en s?appuyant sur des éditeurs d?avant-garde, tels Airborne, la galerie MAI, Meubles TV, Steiner, Les Huchers-Minvielle, puis Meurop, ou encore Pierre Disderot pour les luminaires. Revisitant les formes utiles à l?aune de nouveaux matériaux, il fonde en 1954 l?Atelier de recherches plastiques (ARP) avec Michel Mortier et Joseph-André Motte, premier collectif français de créateurs qui durera trois ans. À partir des années 1960, il privilégie l?architecture intérieure, où sa maîtrise de l'espace, des matières et de leur mise en oeuvre l'impose sur de nombreux projets. Il participe au chantier de Firminy après le décès de Le Corbusier et collabore avec l?architecte Michel Bezançon à la création de La Plagne ou Jean Dubuisson à Bandol. Sollicité pour de multiples chantiers privés ou publics, il aménage notamment la préfecture et le conseil général de l?Essonne à Évry ainsi que le tribunal de grande instance de Créteil. S'appuyant sur des archives inédites, cet ouvrage revient sur un parcours riche de plus de 200 aménagements, presque autant de meubles et un ensemble exceptionnel d?appareils d'éclairage qui pose les jalons du luminaire moderne.
