En savoir plus sur le livre
Now that late-twentieth-century Minimalist design has opened up to more vibrant and flamboyantly hybrid sensibilities, the world is awash in provocative utilitarian objects that trend-spotters and critics have embraced with both relief and pleasure--coining genre names like "newstalgic," "industrial vintage" and "baroquissima" in order to describe them. This volume delineates and interprets this trend towards Minimalist ornamentation for the first time with coolly charismatic examples ranging from Jon Van Der Drift's "Big Sahara" carpet made from wool and glittering Swarovski crystal to Ron Arad's polyethylene "Clover" armchair to Jeroen Verhoeven's contemporary computer-aided design classic, the "Cinderella" table. Divided into chapters that invoke Glam, Deco, Vintage, Baroque, Lace and the concept of Accident, this volume features more than 100 international designers who illustrate the full spectrum of contemporary Minimalist decoration.
