Atlas of Furniture Design; The new encyclopedic publication on 200 years of furniture design
, Vitra Design Museum, 2018 Hardcover 1018 pages, 310 x 235 mm, Illustrated. ISBN 9783931936990.
the Vitra Design Museum publishes the »Atlas of Furniture Design«, a new comprehensive overview on the history of modern furniture design. With more than 1,000 pages, the »Atlas« is the most extensive book ever to be published on the topic. It documents 1,740 objects by over 540 designers, and features more than 2,800 illustrations, from object photographs to design sketches and interiors as well as patents, brochures, art, architecture, and portraits of the designers. 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.«

Art & Design Atomium Museum. The Plastic Collection
, [BE] CFC-Editions , Paperback, 280x230mm, 216p, 300 colour illustrations, English/ French/ Dutch (NL)/ German edition . ISBN 9782875720153.
De la collection privee du Plasticarium a un musee d'art et de design a Bruxelles. Nouveau musee et centre d'art, le ADAM (Art & Design Atomium Museum) a pour ambition de devenir une reference museale en matiere d'expositions d'art et de design a Bruxelles. Installe sur le plateau du Heysel, a deux pas de l'Atomium, il dispose de pres de 5.000m2 et a pour exposition permanente la collection du Plasticarium. Constituee depuis les annees 1980, cette collection est un ensemble singulier et unique au monde qui regroupe plusieurs centaines d'objets en plastique, allant du plus usuel a l'?uvre d'art, en passant par l'objet de design. Si cette collection occupe la large place qu'elle merite au sein du musee, d'autres espaces proposent des expositions temporaires dediees a l'art et au design du XXe siecle et d'aujourd'hui. Le present ouvrage reprend les creations des designers parmi les plus importants dans le domaine du plastique depuis les annees 1950 jusqu'a nos jours. Un florilege de formes et de matieres magnifiquement illustre par des reproductions en quadrichromie dont beaucoup en pleine page. Un livre reference, qui compte egalement quelques ?uvres d'art ayant recours au plastique, publie en quatre langues (francais, neerlandais, anglais, allemand). Les auteurs : Les textes sont signes par des experts dans le domaine du design : - Anne Bony : historienne de l'art, specialiste de l'histoire du design, collaboratrice aux editions du Regard en tant que directrice de collection et auteur d'une serie d'ouvrages sur la creation au XXe siecle (?« Les Annees 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 et 90 ?»), ainsi que ?« Meubles et decors des annees 40, 60 et 70 ?». Elle a publie, en 2006, aux editions Larousse, ?« Le Design. Histoire, principaux courants, grandes figures ?». - Alexandra Midal : docteur en histoire du design et commissaire d'exposition. Apres avoir ete directrice du FRAC de Haute-Normandie, assistante de Dan Graham, pensionnaire de la Villa Medicis, elle est aujourd'hui professeur en histoire et theorie du design, directrice des Masters Design et curatrice de la Design Project Room a la Haute ecole d'art et de design de Geneve. Elle a publie dans de nombreuses revues internationales et dans des catalogues de musees (MoMA?). - Richard Thommeret : professeur a l'universite de Bruxelles depuis 1998, il y intervient principalement au sein du master de Design industriel & d'Architecture d'interieur. Ingenieur de formation, ancien chercheur en materiaux polymeres, il a publie en 2013, aux editions Eyrolles, l'ouvrage ?« Plastiques & design ?». Le catalogue reprend de nombreuses pieces importantes -voire mythiques- de l'histoire du design base sur l'utilisation du plastique, des annees 1950 a nos jours, signees des plus grands designers internationaux. Het Atomium in Brussel werd voor het eerst in gebruik genomen in 1958, het werd gerenoveerd in 2006, maar 2015 wordt een nieuwe scharnierdatum in zijn geschiedenis. In december 2015 wordt immers het Art & Design Atomium Museum (ADAM) feestelijk geopend op de Heizelvlakte. Het werd ontworpen als museum voor design en kunst, en niet louter als museum van design stricto sensu. We zien hier inderdaad voorwerpen die we elke dag wel gebruiken maar waarvan we de formele kwaliteiten niet meer zien, stoelen die niet langer aan hun basisfunctie herinneren, provocerende of ongewone kunstwerken, ook foto's die raken of verrassen en architectuur die bewierookt of lange tijd ondergewaardeerd werd en meer dan de moeite waard is om nu te herontdekken. De prive-collectie, het Plasticarium, van Philippe Decelle, is uniek in de wereld en vormt de kern van de permanente tentoonstelling van het ADAM. Tientallen jaren lang verzamelde deze liefhebber kunststofmateriaal. De tentoonstelling bevat grote stukken, prototypes, ons welbekende alledaagse consumptievoorwerpen en ook meesterwerken van beroemde kunstenaars.

Designing Here/Now, Insight into the Contemporary Practice of Design via the Core77 Design Awards
, T , 2014 With black edged pages, Hardback, 267x222mm, 448p, English edition, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9780500517482.
Design touches every aspect of our lives and has become one of the most exciting and fast-moving industries, enlivening businesses, stimulating economies and solving humanitys most pressing problems. Increasingly connected to the developments in technology, design has also become one of the most dynamic areas of exploration, with design schools and professions exploding across the globe. It is difficult to keep pace with the most relevant innovations, to detect the signal from the noise of product releases and marketing campaigns, but one arbiter of the profession has been presenting the design worlds best work since 1995: Core77, a platform that some consider one of the very first online magazines, sponsoring reviews, lectures and exhibitions, and working with many of the leading design agencies and design-led companies, such as Apple, Nike, Philips, DuPont, Braun and many others. For the past several years, it has hosted a unique set of design awards, juried by the worlds design experts, which has attracted a dazzling spectrum of international practices. From consumer products to speculative ventures, from transportation to visual communication, from design writing to food design, the entrants and winners of the Core77 Design Awards capture the spirit and preoccupations of the design industry, and the best work chosen by panels of jury members that include design luminaries from the U.S., Europe, India and China. Designing Here/Now is no ordinary survey of the current state of design: it offers a large- scale overview of how design can change our personal and professional lives in fresh and often unexpected ways.
