Summary:

Susi und Ueli Berger schufen Schweizer Designikonen: den Soft Chair (1967), die Wolkenlampe (1970), das Endlossofa DS-600 (1970) oder 1981 den Schubladenstapel und das Kung-Fu-Regal. Über 40 Jahre gestalteten die Grafikerin Susi Berger-Wyss und der Künstler Ueli Berger Möbel getreu ihrem Credo: 'Nur eine neue Idee rechtfertigt ein neues Möbelstück'. Mit seiner intuitiven, manchmal auch provokativen Arbeitsweise verliess das Paar die ausgetretenen Pfade des Funktionalismus und wagte sich vor in eine Welt der Gegensätze zwischen Produktdesign und Objektkunst, Alltagstauglichkeit und spielerischer Provokation, Rationalität und Sinnlichkeit. Dieses Buch bietet ein vollständiges Werkverzeichnis der gut 60 Möbelentwürfe von Susi und Ueli Berger.
