Summary:
We may encounter different types of packaging everyday, but how many of us truly appreciate the art of packaging? From food packaging to beverage containers, tissue boxes to CD covers, packaging is hard to be missed in our daily lives. Yet not many of us see packaging as a form of art. Are we taking it for granted because it is around us at all times? Or perhaps we see it simply as a marketing tool to sell products? When was the last time you were excited by the packaging of a product? Did it persuade you to buy the product? Packaging is not only a powerful selling tool, it is also an effective method of communication that can stimulate the viewers’ senses. Good packaging can break through the language barrier and can stand the test of time. Like the three previous books in the series, the fourth book ‘It’s a matter of Packaging’ showcases some of the most creative and interesting work produced by designers from all over the world. The book is divided into three main sections: Visual, Touch and Idea, featuring work from almost sixty designers/ companies around the globe. The work ranges from shopping bags to music, food to beverages, books to catalogues, toys to fashion. There are interviews from three established packaging designers, Giannis Kouroudis from K2 design, Sayuri Shoji from Sayuri Studio and Tom Lancaster from Stylo Design. With the diverse collection of work, this book will arouse your senses, inspire your mind and encourage you to appreciate the art of packaging.

Summary:
How long ago have you been to an exhibition or an event? What information and amusement you get from it? Did you enjoy it? We are thrilled to present you our latest title When Space Meets Art/When Art Meets Space which leads you to taste and feel all sorts of events comprehensively. An exhibition, a party or any kinds of event can encompass all design areas. For many of us who usually focus only on the exhibited items or the subject of events, few of us ever pay attention to the whole design environment. This title will guide you to look and feel it through two key components: spatial design and graphic elements. From 3D to 2D, it demonstrates how structural work including venue setups from exterior to interior makes the whole event outstanding and turn into exceptional eye-catching fascination and how graphic elements from venue decorations to promotional items makes consistency to reflect the whole event concept and affect the affiliation from the exhibited subjects to audience. By that, the title ultimately reveals how these objects affect your sense and blow up your impression to particular events.

Summary:
La revue Cheval désire transmettre les éléments et les pistes qui contribueront à une meilleure reconnaissance des oeuvres et des artistes participant au renouveau graphique et littéraire du livre contemporain. Cheval recueille des points de vue, des témoignages, des entretiens sur les démarches, les théories, les idéaux, les sentiments et les obsessions qui animent le travail des auteurs. Cheval confronte plusieurs personnalités et leurs différentes façons de penser et de pratiquer la bande dessinée, l’illustration, le dessin, le livre et son écriture. Loin de vouloir dicter une seule vérité, Cheval est une revue pour mieux saisir et exprimer chacune de celles qui existent et font avancer l’histoire du livre qui nous passionne et nous anime. Ce N° 0 de Cheval présente quatre essais écrits chacun respectivement par : Guillaume Dégé (artiste et enseignant à l’ENSAD et à la HEAR), Olivier Deloignon (historien, chercheur, et enseignant à la HEAR), Julien Magnani et Eugène Riousse (auteur et scénariste). Également au sommaire, un entretien croisé entre deux auteurs, Margaux Othats et Jérémie Fischer, conduit par Marion Fayolle. La revue Cheval est née des idées et des énergies de Guillaume Dégé, Marion Fayolle, Julien Magnani et Eugène Riousse.

Summary:
Pan écrit l’histoire d’un groupe restreint d’artistes qui se parlent, année après année, chacun avec son medium, qui prennent le risque d’affronter d’autres univers pour enrichir le leur. Notre actualité, ce sont ces rencontres. Ces confrontations qui amènent les écrivains et les dessinateurs à interroger leur art, leur façon de le pratiquer. Chaque numéro de Pan tisse son histoire singulière autour d’un fil conducteur. Ce questionnement commun, il n’est pas annoncé, mais il lie bel et bien tous les projets de chaque numéro. Cet axe central autour duquel tournent les neuf fragments associant texte et images, il se découvre à mesure que les projets s’y agglutinent, que le numéro se construit et grandit. Tout oeil avisé peut déceler ces liens, ces jeux d’écho qui forment la cohérence de chaque numéro. Si Pan est bien une revue, au sens d’une publication régulière, c’est finalement d’une oeuvre unique et multiple à la fois, d’un ouvrage kaléidoscopique qu’elle accouche chaque année. Chaque éclat répond, comme une réverbération déformée, aux autres facettes qui la composent. Au « lecteur complice », que Cortázar appelle de ses voeux, de retrouver dans l’éparpillement le sens de cette histoire à dix-huit voix. Co-fondée et co-pilotée par Jérémie Fischer et Jean-Baptiste Labrune, Pan se consacre à l'exploration des rapports textes-images en littérature moderne. La primauté du texte sur l'image est rompue avec Pan. L'illustrateur n'est plus nécessairement celui que l'on croit?: l'écrivain s'inspire d'images muettes avant de rédiger de la prose, du théâtre ou de la poésie. La revue rassemble, sous forme d'un livre de 192 pages, des oeuvres d'avant-garde où les textes et les images se marient pour atteindre une littérature totale, sans auxiliaire ou subordonné.

Summary:
The Hive was the centrepiece of the gold medal winning UK Pavilion at the 2015 Milan Expo, and from June 2016 takes up its new home within Kew Gardens. Soaring 17 metres in the air, designed by Wolfgang Buttress and created by BDP, Simmonds Studio and Stage One, The Hive is an immersive, multi-sensory experience inspired by ground-breaking UK scientific research into the health of bees. Showcasing British creativity, innovation and leadership in overcoming global challenges, this magnificent aluminium structure draws visitors into the space via a wildflower meadow, as though they are worker bees returning to the hive. Hundreds of glowing LED lights bring this 40 tonne lattice structure to life, while a beautiful symphony of orchestral sounds fills the air, with an atmospheric undercurrent of buzzes and pulses. Triggered by vibration sensors within a real beehive, the sound and light intensity within the pavilion increases as the energy levels in the living hive surge, giving visitors an incredible insight into the ever-moving life of a bee colony.The Hive at Kew is a beautifully illustrated celebration of this fascinating project. The book is divided into three sections, with James Haldane, Design Editor for The Architectural Review focusing first on the origins and the architecture of the Hive and its creation led by artist Wolfgang Buttress. The central body of the book focusses on the immersion of the Hive at Kew and the surrounding wildflower meadow designed to attract a variety of bees. This section includes features on the team behind the Hive, as well as Kew's horticultural experts. Finally, Martin Bencsik of Nottingham Trent University and Kew's Phil Stephenson explain the pioneering research into bee health and communication that inspired the Hive, and how Kew is working to help bees in their vital role as pollinators. Beautifully illustrated throughout with photographs of the Hive itself, its construction, and the wildflower meadow surrounding it, as well as architectural plans of the structure.
