Italy: the New Domestic Landscape by Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) Pdf

"During the last decade, the emergence of Italy as the dominant force in design has had a profound influence in Europe and the Americas. The phenomenon is important not only because of the high quality and diversity of the forms produced, but also because it has generated a lively debate on the sociocultural implications of product design, raising questions of vital concern to designers throughout the world. For many designers, the aesthetic quality of individual objects intended for private consumption have become irrelevant in the face of such pressing problems as poverty, urban decay, and the pollution of the environment now encountered in all industrialized countries. Consequently, they are increasingly shifting he focus of their attention from the well-designed object to man's total environment, seeing the designer's function as one that can mold patterns of behavior by creating new settings for freer, more adaptable lifestyles. Some, however, despairing of effecting social change through design, regard their task as essentially a political one. They therefore abstain from the physical designing of either objects or environments and channel their energies into the staging of events and the issuing of polemical statements. Their approach thus parallels that of many artists in other mediums who view their art in primarily conceptual terms. This publication, issued in conjunction with a major exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, is the first to deal comprehensively with these challenging developments. Over 150 objects of Italian design of the past ten years have been selected for the show and are all reproduced in color and black-and-white, as are the dozen environments by well-known Italian designers specially commissioned for the occasion, and the two awarded prizes in a concurrent competition for young designers under thirty-five sponsored by the Museum. Each environment is accompanied by a statement in which the individual or group responsible for the project clarifies his position regarding the present and future role of design. In addition to essays by Emilio Ambasz, Curator of Design at the Museum of Modern Art and director of the exhibition, the book contains contributions by a number of outstanding Italian critics and art historians. Together, these comprise the first historical survey of contemporary Italian design and a critical analysis of its intellectual and formal positions within the context of international design today." -- Publisher's description

Made in Cassina by Giampiero Bosoni Pdf

In celebration of Cassina's 80th anniversary, this book seeks to avoid the rigid rules of simple historical reconstruction. This publication was conceived to form part of a complete and valuable historical document of great interest to students and experts of international design. The core and most substantial part of the book is the section dedicated to those important international designers who have had the strongest influence on the evolution of Cassina, including Gio Ponti, Vico Magistretti, Gaetano Pesce, Archizoom, Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Andrea Branzi, and Philippe Starck. In the broad sections dedicated to the various designers and their "visions" for Cassina, some of the best-known products in the history of Italian and international design are presented, often through images unknown to the public. Some of the company's better known designs are out of production and for some time now have been highly sought after in world auctions of major pieces of international design.

Interior Design Masters by Mark Hinchman,Elyssa Yoneda Pdf

Interior Design Masters contains 300 biographical entries of people who have significantly impacted design. They are the people, historical and contemporary, that students and practitioners should know. Coverage starts in the late Renaissance, with a focus on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The book has five sections, with the entries alphabetical in each, so it can serve as a history textbook and a reference guide. The seventeeth- and eighteenth-century section covers figures from Thomas Chippendale to Horace Walpole. The nineteenth-century section includes William Morris and Candace Wheeler. The early twentieth-century section presents modernism’s design heroes, including Marcel Breuer, Eileen Gray, and Gilbert Rohde. The post-World War II designers range from Madeleine Castaing to Raymond Loewy. The final contemporary section includes Ron Arad and the Bouroullec brothers. These are the canonical figures who belong to any design history. The book also contains less well-known figures who deserve attention, such as Betty Joel, the British art deco furniture designer; Paul Veysseyre, the Frenchman active in China in the 1930s; and more recently Lanzavecchia-Wai, the Italian-Singaporean duo whose work ranges from health care to helicopters. Global in its coverage, the book is richly illustrated with over 600 black-and-white and color photographs.

Autoprogettazione? by Enzo Mari Pdf

Il libro è costituito da un progetto realizzato da Mari nel '74 e rappresenta uno stimolo (e una provocazione) per legare la creatività alla capacità costruttiva di ognuno, seguendo e/o modificando la traccia data dai disegni progettuali di Enzo Mari per la realizzazione di una sedia, un tavolo, un armadio, un letto. Il libro riprende la precedente pubblicazione "Proposta per un'autoprogettazione" curata dal centro Duchamp e stampata in occasione della mostra alla Galleria Milano, alla quale si aggiungono i testi dello stesso Mari a commento di quest'operazione, la documentazione di ciò che la prima uscita del progetto ha provocato (lettere, commenti, articoli), immagini, disegni e una riflessione sull'attualità della riproposta di oggi.
