Dans cet entretien avec Constance Rubini, on découvre la force de ces deux caractères, leur passion "à fabriquer des choses" que ce soit par l'artisanat ou par la machine, leur entêtement à contrôler chaque étape de la création pour atteindre la justesse. Leur travail, sans compromission, fait déjà date dans l'histoire du design.

Download or read book DesignPOP written by Lisa S. Roberts and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DesignPOP is a survey of trends in contemporary furniture and products that reveals how design is not only changing with the times—it is inventing the future. The game-changing projects that compose DesignPOP push the boundaries of our expectations and show us new ideas, new possibilities, and ultimately new products that enrich our lives. The bar has been permanently raised as we enter the next century, and the proliferation of innovative designs continues. New materials and processes are being invented, convention and traditions are constantly being challenged, and sustainability and social responsibility are influencing new directions. Even the definition of designer is changing as the lines between disciplines begin to blur, with new technology from companies like Apple and Dyson radically altering both form and function. Historic boundaries disappear, designers innovate their way through roadblocks, and the twenty-first century is experiencing a design renaissance unparalleled in history. This book showcases a broad variety of these examples: from designs that pioneer a new material or a new production process, or reinvent the use for an existing one, to those that alter our expectations about the way something should look and create a whole new typology, or a thoughtful design added to products that traditionally were only considered for their functionality. It presents work from stars in the field, including Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, Marc Newson, Marcel Wanders, Yves Behar, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Campana brothers, Hella Jongerius, Tord Boontje, Philippe Starck, Karim Rashid, Ron Arad, Ross Lovegrove, Dror Benshetrit, Tokujin Yoshioka, Jasper Morrison, James Dyson, and Jonathan Ive.

Download or read book Nature Design written by Angeli Sachs and published by Lars Muller Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nature has been a source of inspiration in the design of the human environment, and its influence on contemporary design is more than evident. The "model of nature," with its forms, structures, and organizing principles, does not only inspire the widest range of concept and design processes, but also can be expressed in a broad spectrum of forms and functions. Nature Design addresses this phenomenon from the eighteenth century until today, and presents an international selection of objects and projects from the fields of design, architecture, landscape architecture, art, photography, and scientific research that do not simply depict or imitate nature, but use it as a starting point and reservoir of inspiration for eclectic and innovative responses to the relationship between man and his environment." --Book Jacket.

Download or read book Konstantin Grcic written by Mateo Kries and published by . This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Konstantin Grcic ist einer der wichtigsten Designer unserer Zeit. Seine Entwürfe verbinden industrielle Ästhetik mit experimentellen, künstlerischen Elementen, sie sind ernsthaft und funktional, sperrig und teilweise irritierend. Manche von Grcics Designs, etwa der »Chair_One± (2004) oder die Leuchte »Mayday± (1999), gelten bereits heute als Designklassiker. Mit »Konstantin Grcic – Panorama± präsentiert das Vitra Design Museum die bislang größte Einzelausstellung zu Grcic und seinem Werk. Eigens für die Ausstellung hat Grcic mehrere raumgreifende Installationen entwickelt, die seine persönlichen Visionen für das Leben von morgen darlegen: ein Wohninterieur, ein Designatelier und einen Stadtraum. Sie zeigen fiktive Szenarien, konfrontieren den Betrachter mit den Inspirationen, Herausforderungen und Fragen des Designers und stellen Grcics Entwürfe in einen größeren gesell-schaftlichen Zusammenhang. Höhepunkt dieser Inszenierungen ist ein 30 Meter langes Panoramabild, das eine Architekturlandschaft der Zukunft zeigt.0Ein vierter Ausstellungsbereich richtet einen konzentrierten Blick auf die tägliche Arbeit von Konstantin Grcic. Hier werden viele seiner Produkte, aber auch Prototypen, Zeichnungen und Hintergrundinformationen gezeigt, ergänzt um Fundstücke, Alltagsgegenstände und Werke anderer Gestalter, die Grcic inspiriert haben – von einer alten Teekanne und einem frühen Apple-Computer bis hin zu Werken von Marcel Duchamp, Gerrit Rietveld oder Enzo Mari. Mit dem Wechsel der Perspektiven zwischen dem großen und dem kleinen Zusammenhang zeigt die Ausstellung, dass Design für Grcic nicht nur Problemlösung ist, sondern ein assoziativer Umgang mit Bildern, Zufällen, Brüchen und Entdeckungen.0Exhibition: Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein, Germany (22.3.-14.9.2014) / Z33, Hasselt, Belgium (1.2.-24.5.2015).
Download or read book Furnitecture written by Anna Yudina and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a wave of designers who are applying architectural techniques to create innovative new furnishing options Furnitecture is a sourcebook exploring the furnishings, interior environments, and solutions for small spaces at the meeting point between design and architecture. The book features the work of a rising generation of designers across the globe who are starting to think about furniture in an architectural way, resulting in pieces that brilliantly transform interior spaces. Boosted by digital design and new manufacturing possibilities, furniture design that morphs into “micro architecture” is one of the most innovative fields of design today. Surveyed here are hundreds of examples of these objects, including bookshelves that can dynamically divide and reshape a room, chairs that create intimate room-like enclosures, and self-contained, expandable kitchen cubes. From Chicago-based firm Bureau Spectacular’s “Briefcase house,” and Japanese architect Shigeru Ban’s moving boxes within rooms to Dutch designers Makkink & Bey’s conversational Ear Chairs and the French atelier 37.2’s series of self-standing cubes, Furnitecture opens the door to a world of design invention and innovation. Presented in a compact, beautifully illustrated format, this volume will be an essential resource for designers and hip consumers everywhere.
