Summary:
"Design Culture Now" is the first survey of American design to cut across the disciplines of architecture, product design, and graphic design. This comprehensive work, organized by the Smithsonian's National Design Museum, catalogues the best in architecture, interiors, environments, landscapes, products, furniture, fashion, objects, typefaces, posters, publications, film graphics, and interactive media produced over the last three years. Organized around a series of themes -- Branded, Fluid, Local, Minimal, Narrative, Physical, Reclaimed, and Unbelievable -- "Design Culture Now" presents current projects by up-and-coming designers who are forging new ideas at the margins of the profession as well as established masters whose work continues to evolve. Some of the over 80 individuals and firms whose work is repre-sented include Kyle Cooper, who created the titles for the films "Seven", "The Mummy", and "Mission: Impossible"; graphic designers Bruce Mau and Stefan Sagmeister; Jonathan Ive, designer of the iMac; style guru Martha Stewart; Arlen and Cory Ness, customizers of Harley-Davidson motorcycles; Julie Taymor, director and designer of the Broadway musical "The Lion King"; architects Neil Denari and Frank Gehry; Dante Ferretti, art director of the films Kundun and Casino; fashion designers Kate Spade and Geoffrey Beene; and John Kricfalusi, creator of the cartoon "Ren & Stimpy". Authoritative essays by Donald Albrecht, Ellen Lupton, and Steven Skov Holt describe the state of design at the beginning of the new millennium. Vibrantly designed, this exhaustive survey includes hundreds of full-colour images.

Ces décorateurs formèrent le goût de leur époque, suivis par d'autres, qui marquèrent de leur empreinte le style du XXe siècle. "Décorateurs d'intérieurs" révèle l'histoire et les évolutions de cette forme artistique, en étudiant la vie et l'œuvre de célèbres décorateurs européens et américains. Le texte de Suzanne Trocmé met en lumière les différentes philosophies adoptées par ces créateurs - notamment au travers d'entretiens exclusifs qui lui ont été accordés par nombre d'entre eux. Qu'il s'agisse des propos passionnants de feu David Hicks, tenus lors d'une interview donnée juste avant sa mort, ou des conceptions audacieuses de Philippe Starck, ce livre regorge d'anecdotes et de citations, et apporte un éclairage sur les créations et les sources d'inspiration de chaque décorateur. Les grands ancêtres du design moderne, tels John Fowler et Nancy Lancaster, qui ont tant contribué à l'avènement des styles d'aujourd'hui, ne sont pas oubliés. Avec ses 180 photographies.

Summary:
"The Origin of Things" is an international survey of the history of design from William Morris to Rem Koolhaas. Giving examples of around thirty case studies, it illuminates the process through which designers transform their often-groundbreaking ideas into products. In the context of this book, drawings, cardboard models stuck together with tape and ultramodern computer animations are more significant than the finished products. The more historical examples are by Theodor Bogler, H.P. Berlage, Frank Lloyd Wright and Gerrit Rietveld. Dutch design is represented by Wim Gilles, Kho Liang Ie, Aart Roelandt, Hella Jongerius, Marcel Wanders and Dick van Hoff. There are international highlights from the oeuvres of Richard Buckminster Fuller, Verner Panton, Poul Henningsen, Tapio Wirkkala, Mario Bellini, Michele de Lucchi, James Dyson, Jasper Morrison, Marc Newson and Konstantin Grcic.

Chairs, lightbulbs, cup holders, toothbrushes, doorknobs, light switches, potato peelers, paper bags, duct tape–as ubiquitous as these may be, they are still works in progress.

Summary:
A perceptive study of design in everyday life, while revealing the checkered pasts, and some possible futures, of familiar objects. Chairs, lightbulbs, cup holders, toothbrushes, doorknobs, light switches, potato peelers, paper bags, duct tape–as ubiquitous as these may be, they are still works in progress. The design of such ordinary items demonstrates the simple brilliance of human creativity, while at the same time showing the frustration of getting anything completely right. Nothing’s perfect, and so the quest for perfection continues to continue. In this book, Petroski presents the creative process by which common objects are invented and improved upon in pursuit of the ever-elusive perfect thing.

Summary:
This catalogue is published in conjunction with "Il modo italian - Italian design and avant-garde in the 20th century", an exhibition produced by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in collaboration with the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, and the Mart – Museo di Arte Moderna e Contemporanea di Trento e Rovereto. Italian design has spanned the whole of the twentieth century, leaving a highly distinctive mark on the way that the form of objects of everyday use is perceived in industrial and contemporary society. This “Italian way” has succeeded, through a complex and hesitant process of industrial innovation and technological updating, in developing an independent and multifaceted culture of design capable of marrying the country’s rich craft tradition with an often fiercely resisted aspiration to modernity made up of flashes of improvisation and irony, and associated with an arduous bent for experimentation. The exhibition, with around 400 works chosen from among the most representative of artistic research and the culture of design in Italy in the twentieth century, is arranged chronologically, with four sections that define the different periods in the philosophical, economic, and aesthetic discourse that has accompanied the recent history of art and design in Italy. The survey brings to light the “philosophies” of design and the “aesthetics” that found a strong and dialectical expression right through the last century in Italy, and that are at the root of the country’s characteristic and lively cultural debate between art and design.
