‎Josef Albers Life and Work‎

‎, Thame and Hudson, 2018 Hardcover with dusjacket,. ISBN 9780500519103.‎

‎While Josef Albers' Bauhaus colleagues Klee and Kandinsky are household names, Albers himself has remained inscrutable. He is best known as the painter of the Homages to the Square, a series of over 2,000 seemingly tightly controlled experiments in the interaction of colour. Yet he did not begin these pictures until he was in his sixties, already several decades into his career as an artist, maker and theorist, much of it pursued in the United States following the Nazi dissolution of the Bauhaus in 1933. Misunderstanding of the Homages reflects a wider misreading of Albers' life and work. Married to the textile artist Anni Albers, his papers include letters from fellow artists John Cage, Robert Rauschenberg, Richard Serra and Eva Hesse; colleagues such as Buckminster Fuller and Philip Johnson; and fans and collectors ranging from the composer Virgil Thomson to the cartoonist Saul Steinberg. If his network of influence was surprisingly wide, so, too, were his interests. Albers started life at the Bauhaus as a glassmaker, ran their renowned wallpaper workshop, and designed furniture that is still in production eighty years later. He pioneered the study of colour at Black Mountain College, organized its famed Summer Sessions' with guest tutors from Willem de Kooning to Merce Cunningham, and went on to head the design department at Yale. Drawing on extensive unpublished writings, documents and illustrations, Darwent offers a broad view of not only the artistic and political currents, but also the friendships and rivalries that formed the backdrop to Albers' creative output.‎

‎EAMES: BEAUTIFUL DETAILS‎

‎, Ammo Books, 2012 Hardcover, 410 pages, ENG, 430 x 310 x 55 mm, NEW !, Full Page illustrations in colour / b/w, XX Large Edition, for protection in a strong wooden case ! . ISBN 9781934429747.‎

‎"Eames: Beautiful Details" celebrates the seamlessness and fluidity in which Charles and Ray Eames operated as both a husband-and-wife team and as designers unrestricted by traditionally profesionally boundaries. Select details of their life and work, from their refined designs to to their innovative experiments, and even including images depicting the everyday poetic moments of their lives, and are shared here in this exhibit within a book. Inspired by Charles's immersive and original slideshows, in which he expertly selected and grouped images together that communicated information in an aesthetic, direct, and accessible way, this book strives to visually created the Eameses' life and work by taking the viewer through a delightful joruney, focusing on their "beautiful details." The packaging design of the "Eames: Beautiful Details" slipcase is a pattern inspired by the triangles and colors of one of their most inventive, if lesser-known, designs for children, simply called, "the toy." It also pays homage to the patterns they used on their well-loved House of Cards. The Eameses brought a sense of humor and joy to everything they created, and the design and layout of the book aims to convey that spirit in a visual feast for the eyes. It is a testament to the Eameses and the lasting value of good design that their Eames lounge chair, created in 1956, endures today as perhaps the most recognizable and coveted piece of mid-century furniture design. Their experiments in technological innovations, like molded plywood and fiberglass, resulted in such classic pieces as the bent plywood LCW and DCM Chairs, the Molded Plastic Chairs, and the Aluminum Group; all of which are still in production by Herman Miller. Likewise, Charles and Ray designed and built their own home in 1949 in Pacific Palisades, and it is still revered as a landmark of modern architecture. Built as part of the Case Study program in California, sponsored by Arts & Architecture magazine, it was one of the earliest experiments in pre-fab construction, using off-the-shelf industrial parts. But unlike the austerity of much of modern architectural design, their factory-like shell was lovingly lived in along with their personal collections of folk art, treasures from their travels, and everyday objects refreshingly displayed with affection and without pretense.‎

‎Victorian designs for the home.‎

‎London, V and A Publications, 1999 Softcover, 144pp., 21x27cm., ills. in col. and b/w., as new. ISBN 9781851772896.‎

‎A survey of Victorian style and design, covering key movements and featuring seminal work by key designers - from Morris and de Morgan to Voysey and Mackintosh. The Victorian period (from 1837 to 1901) produced a wealth of innovative design. It was characterised by diversity and conflicting desires for tradition and progress which gave rise to a rich variety of styles such as revivals of Gothic and Rococo, a new fascination with the East in Japonisme and the appearance of Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts Movement. Elaborate designs for furniture by Pugin and Burges, or ceramics and silver by Mackintosh and Knox, are seen alongside actual pieces as they were eventually created, while a range of room designs reflect changing tastes in form and colour and different lifestyles.‎

‎Charles Percier : Architecture and Design in an Age of Revolutions ‎

‎, Yale University Press 2016, 2016 Hardcover, 304 pages, English, 295 x 255 mm, new book with dustjacket, . ISBN 9780300221589.‎

‎Handsomely designed and richly illustrated, this publication surveys the magnificent spectrum of projects undertaken by French architect and interior designer Charles Percier (1764-1838). After gaining an illustrious reputation for supervising the scenery at the Paris Opera during the French Revolution, Percier was later appointed by Napoleon Bonaparte. With the Emperor's support, he developed the opulent versions of neoclassicism closely associated with the Napoleonic era, and now known as Directoire style and Empire style. Percier worked on the renovation or redecoration of many of France's royal palaces, including the Louvre, the Tuileries, and the chateaux of Malmaison, Saint-Cloud, and Fontainebleau. The full scope and variety of Percier's design projects are revealed in this book, which also includes archival material detailing Percier's relationships with patrons and peers.‎

‎Dirk Wynants. Designer. I've Always Been Attached to the Globe.‎

‎, Stichting Kunstboek BVBA, 2012 Hardback, 260x210mm, 160p, 100 colour illustrations, English edition. ISBN 9789058564085.‎

‎Dirk Wynants (? 1964) is de oprichter en eigenaar van het vernieuwende Belgische meubelmerk Extremis. Hij is tegelijk de belangrijkste ontwerper van het merk en de bedenker van het briljante branding concept "Tools for Togetherness". Het unieke succesverhaal van Extremis, dat op enkele jaren tijd een internationale reputatie verwierf als trendsetter op het gebied van buitenmeubilair, is sterk gelinkt aan de bevlogen persoonlijkheid en veelzijdige talenten van deze ontwerper-ondernemer, die het klappen van de zweep al heel jong leerde als zoon van een meubelmaker-schrijnwerker. Meer dan wie ook laat hij zich inspireren door een geengageerde visie op design. Hij heeft een duidelijke boodschap. Design is niet zomaar een kwestie van stijliconen of glamourdingen, maar veel meer van innovatieve oplossingen die van de wereld hopelijk een betere plek kunnen maken, vandaar de titel Design Works? Overtuigd maar ook altijd met de moed om vraagtekens te plaatsen. Sinds 2007 bestaat Dirk Wynants Design Works of (dw)2 autonoom en staat het naast Extremis ook open voor externe ontwerpopdrachten. Dirk Wynants sleepte sinds de start van Extremis in 1994 talloze internationale onderscheidingen in de wacht. Van de meest prestigieuze designerkenningen tot awards voor design management, algemeen management en export (waaronder Henry van de Velde Awards, Interior Innovation Award, (IMM Koln), Red Dot Award, International Excellence Design Award). As a son of a cabinet maker, Dirk Wynants (? 1964), was brought up with a nose for good design and a healthy dose of entrepreneurship. He studied interior and furniture design at Sint-Lucas School for Architecture in Ghent (Belgium) and was involved in the distribution of international design brands, until he established Extremis (1994), a label and brand for his own designs. Extremis' outdoor furniture designs quickly grew into an international standard of excellence. Not only the design collection itself has been applauded and awarded many times (with several Henry van de Velde Awards, Interior Innovation Award, (IMM Koln 2005), Red Dot Award 2005, International Excellence Design Award 2007, ao.), the expertise of Extremis in the field of design management, general management and export was praised just as well. In 2007 the creative unit of Extremis continued under the name Dirk Wynants Design Works = (dw)?, to enable the company to take on external design tasks. Dirk Wynants is still managing director and main designer of Extremis, but is also working closely together with other internationally renowned designers.‎

‎THE DANISH CHAIR : An international affair ‎

‎, Strandberg (T&H distr), 2024 Hardcover, 336 pages, ENG. edition; 250 x 140 x 30 mm, NEW, over 300 illustrations in colour / b/w., small text. ISBN 9788792596628.‎

‎Danish designers are renowned around the world for their beautiful and functional chairs. Here is the book that tells the full story of the Danish chairs that were created during the 20th century. The Danish Chair is structured around chair types and illustrates how the 'golden age' of Danish furniture design was driven by the study and refinement of historical furniture types. It traces the family relations between the chairs and shows how they influenced each other in terms of detailing, construction and concept. Design was the cultural phenomenon that put Denmark on the world map in the mid 20th century. The international brand of Danish Design arose in 1949 when American journalists began to write about the Danish furniture at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild exhibition. This was not only the beginning of an important export opportunity but was also taken up as a challenge by Danish designers, who became world-renowned for their obsession with creating the perfect chair.‎

Comment raconter le design aujourd'hui ? En consid rant les objets non seulement dans leur mat rialit mais aussi la mani re dont ils fa onnent notre environnement (im)mat riel, nos interactions sociales et notre perception visuelle. Comment raconter un design vivre et voir ? Comment parler au 21e si cle de l'histoire du design en Belgique? C'est avec ces interrogations que Belgisch design belge, l'exposition au Design Museum Brussels et ce livre qui l'accompagne, souhaitent initier une forme de r flexion. Apr s les livres Panorama et Designing the night, ce projet initie un cycle de propositions sous la forme de pop-ups qui se succ deront dans le temps. Les s lections de pi ces tant t subjectives jamais exhaustives se voudront repr sentatives du design en Belgique depuis les premiers pas de celui-ci jusqu' ses repr sentants actuels les plus passionnants. C'est ici l'occasion de red couvrir certains parmi les designers les plus talentueux comme Maarten Van Severen ou Christophe Gevers et de retracer bri vement leur parcours. Les pi ces d' poques, de mat riaux, de statuts et de natures diff rentes se succ dent telles que les accessoires en bois ou en m tal con us dans les ann es 1950 par Jules Wabbes, Jacques Dupuis et L on Stynen, ou les premiers gadgets en mati re plastique, ustensiles de cuisine d velopp s par les films ACEC ou NOVA ou encore les tabourets de bar en vinyle aux motifs bicolores et ludiques de Willy Van Der Meeren. Ce tour d'horizon confirme par ailleurs, l'importance de la manufacture Boch Keramis ou de la firme Meurop et permet de se pencher, entre autres, sur les carri res de Huib Hoste, Xavier Lust ou Gustave Serrurier-Bovy.

‎In Belgie is hij al sinds de jaren 90 bekend om zijn meubelontwerpen in metaal en de inrichting van prive- en handelsruimten. Verder maakte Xavier Lust zeer snel zijn opwachting in de besloten kringen van de internationale editie. Sinds Le Banc die werd uitgegeven door MDF Italia, werkt hij met deze uitgever samen, maar ok met wereldwijd gereputeerde merken als De Padova, Driade, Moroso en Extremis. Lust kreeg in 2003 de Henry van de Velde Prijs vor Jong Talent van VIZO. Zijn mebuels zijn herkenbaar aan hun strakke lijn. Hij (ver)vormt metalen oppervlakken wat nieuwe perspectieven opent voor stadsmeubilair, tafelkunst, badkamers, verlichting, de bekleding van elektrische producten Zijn talent zit in de manier om creativiteit op papier en simulatie in 3D te combineren met een subtiele aanpak in de praktijk. ‎
