‎PETER THOMSON AND SON. MID-VICTORIAN FURNITURE STYLES AND DESIGNS,‎

‎Suffolk, Antique Collector's Club, Bound, cloth with illustrated dustjacket in colour, 215 x 305mm., 636pp., illustrated. ISBN 9781851496464.‎

‎This book is fundamentally a reprint of three Thomson books of furniture designs that are out out of print and very sought after. The books reproduced in this edition include: Cabinet-Makers Assistant Cabinet-Makers Sketch Book Practical Cabinet-Makers Book of Designs These books are all very rare and no more than a handful are available throughout the world. 'The Assistant' was the most popular book of furniture design, certainly within the British Empire, and possibly the world, as it was reprinted, unchanged, four times between 1852-1863. As the originals are now 160 years old and in far from perfect condition, a great deal of restoration was necessary. In addition this book includes the following for the first time: - A list of 600 U.K furniture makers who subscribed to the first edition of 'The Assistant' together with their addresses, a significant tool for furniture historians. - An introduction by John Andrews together with photographs of furniture from around the world made from Peter Thomson's designs - An index has been created for this edition as none was available due to the original compilation by the publisher being printed in parts. ‎

‎Matali Crasset Works.‎

‎France, Norma, 2012 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 ‎

‎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. ‎

‎ANTIDESIGN : Galerie Avant-sc ne‎

‎, Norma ditions, 2022 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-Sc ne 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.‎
