Download or read book Best Dutch book designs 2018 written by Gert Jan Slagter and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Met een historie die teruggaat tot 1926 is de jaarlijkse uitverkiezing door een vakjury van de Nederlandse Best Verzorgde Boeken de oudste van Europa. De wat ouderwetse term 'best verzorgd' is altijd gehandhaafd in het bewustzijn dat de jury?s in de eerste plaats boeken uitverkiezen en niet alleen boekontwerpen. In ieder goed gemaakt boek ontmoeten inhoud en vorm elkaar; ieder goed gemaakt boek komt voort uit een samenwerking tussen een opdrachtgever (meestal een uitgever), een ontwerper en de grafische industrie. De rolverdeling tussen de verschillende partners wisselt steeds.0Jaarlijks leggen Nederlandse uitgevers, ontwerpers en producenten 300 à 400 boeken aan een vijfkoppige vakjury voor. Het betreft boeken van allerlei genres: van roman tot kinderboek, van kookboek tot kunstboek, van bedrijfsboek tot filosofieboek. Ieder boek kan een Best Verzorgd Boek worden. Ook digitale publicaties. Maximaal 33 boeken kunnen het keurmerk Best Verzorgd Boek krijgen. 0De selectie wordt jaarlijks geëxposeerd in het Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam en op een aantal andere plekken in binnen- en buitenland. Tegelijk met de expositie in het Stedelijk verschijnt de tweetalige catalogus The Best Dutch Book Designs / De Best Verzorgde Boeken. Deze presenteert de uitverkozen boeken in woord en beeld. Over elk boek schrijft de jury een beknopt rapport. Gedetailleerde gegevens over materialen en technieken bieden een kijkje in de keuken. Dit jaar is Gert Jan Slagter de ontwerper van de catalogus.00Exhibition: Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (25.09.-30.10.2019).
Download or read book Un Conscious City written by Wiel Arets and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one demands that people move to cities; people tend to do so, on their own. People choose to move to cities for opportunity. Such choices are often made unconsciously, as they are based on rules, traditions, and local communities–or a combination of all three. Un-Conscious-City explores and unravels Dutch architect Wiel Arets’ kaleidoscopic viewpoints on the ways the collective, unconscious decisions taken by the world’s citizens throughout time–a process that remains invisible to the naked eye–are now working to transform and shift the physical, sensory, and emotional experiences of human beings, as they navigate and live in today’s metropolises as well as the countryside. People tend to only belong to one religion, one society, or one club–which completely defines their existence. One day most human beings will live in a globalnomadic-urban-condition; this will soon be amplified to unknown heights. Un-Conscious-City raises questions, predicaments, and ideals regarding the future of our cities, while recognizing their limitations. Wiel Arets–renowned architect, writer, and thinker–identifies this condition as the Un-Conscious-City.

Download or read book The Noise Landscape written by Benedikt Boucsein and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The expansive areas around large airports, affected by noise, infrastructure, and transient forms of architecture, have until now not been researched as a phenomenon. But these noise landscapes are emerging worldwide, often surpassing the neighbouring city in size, and sometimes rivalling it in economic importance. On the basis of eight European case studies (Amsterdam, Zurich, London-Heathrow, Frankfurt, Munich, Madrid and the two Paris airports) this book provides the first account of how these landscapes emerged as the result of technical determinations, what is taking place in them, and how they can be interpreted."--Back cover.
Download or read book Recollected Work written by Armand Mevis and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing about Dutch graphic design duo Mevis & van Deursen conforms to type. Praised for their innovative but clear presentation, they have designed everything from artist's books for Gabriel Orozco and Rineke Dijkstra to an official government stamp commemorating the marriage of Dutch Crown Prince Willem-Alexander, based on the number two, since the wedding date was 02-02-02. This book represents a range of work from the past 15 years, mostly books but also posters and smaller pieces. However, the artists have chosen not simply to present the work again but to make it new through collage and reinterpretative interplay, thus "recycling" their innovative design.

Primarily conceived as a digital platform, "Color Library" offers a variety of colorimetric profiles automatically applicable to images, based on color combinations generated according to their perceptual, technical, and conceptual relevance. It not only offers an alternative to standard color printing, but also affirms a distinctive vision of how to print colors and process them" (Verlagshomepage).

The book takes its reader through a visual journey of shared grief and atonement to illuminate moments of beauty and pose moral questions embedded in acts of collective healing.

Download or read book Mortal Cities written by Arna Mackic and published by Park Publishing (WI). This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a child, architect Arna Mačkic experienced firsthand the Bosnian civil war, and with her family she fled her native country for the Netherlands. In 1999, she was able to visit bosnia and the city of Mostar again for the first time to witness the utter devastation--the war had left seventy percent of the buildings destroyed. This experience inspired Mačkic's research to explore the emotional effects of war damage on a city's inhabitants and the possibilities for rebuilding collective and inclusive identities through architecture. Mortal Cities and Forgotten Monuments tells a moving story of architecture and history. The first two parts of the book provide historical background on the war in Bosnia and its relationship to the built environment of the region. The final section demonstrates Mačkic's ideas for architectural interventions, applying a new design language that goes beyond political religious, or cultural interpretations--an openness that allows it avoid tensions and claims of truth without ignoring or denying the past. Using this as a foundation, she proposes designs for urban and public space that are simultaneously rooted in ancient traditions while looking toward the future.
Download or read book Rivers written by Martin Michael Driessen and published by AmazonCrossing. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critically acclaimed, award-winning collection drawing sparkling prose from the inspiration of three rivers passing through different times and places. On the storm-swollen Aisne in northeastern France, an alcoholic actor combats both his demons and nature's tempests. Along the Main and Rhine in Germany, a kindhearted logger has but one wish: to travel with the lumber from his small Franconian hometown to the end of the river in the Netherlands, where it feeds into the majestic North Sea. In a bucolic vale in the French region of Brittany, two families, divided by religion and an unnamed stream, sustain a centuries-old feud, their resolve no match for the constantly shifting flow of water. These three stories span countries and eras, but they are all connected by, and reliant on, the unpredictable power and languid beauty of rivers that give life as quickly as they take it away.
