Under Fabbri’s lens we encounter a silent world roused from its slumber, where objects are animated and personified. Fabbri nods to the photographic practice of Luigi Ghirri, bringing to mind the Italian master’s words: “the camera is a magical toy capable of bringing together the great and the small, illusion and reality, our adult awareness and the fairy-tale world of childhood.” Indeed, in 'The Flying Carpet', we encounter scenes that might derive from comics – a rural hut with painted questioning eyes, a plant uprooted and hovering mid-air, and an embroidered carpet lifting up in the breeze.

Summary:
If abandoned and left alone, human settlements are inevitably taken back into nature’s fold. Photographer and ruin explorer Nakasuji Jun confronts us with the eerily still and untouched buildings and interiors of a modern town now lost to the forest. Chairs and tables are covered in lush carpets of moss, trees spring from roofless houses and rusted vehicles, once lively industry lies quiet, and vines delicately drape facades and power lines with a mantle of green. The stories the town holds slowly slip away in nature’s embrace.

Interrupted by his tragic death in 1962 at the age of 57, Tschumi’s work is rich in theoretical questions. What is the meaning of design at full scale, not just for carpets, tables, or armchairs? Why does the architect study his compositions at the minimal scale of a "postage stamp"? Is furniture the starting point of architecture? Why should the project be studied through the systematical use of variants? Does the future of the city lie in the planning of deep underground systems?

Her playfulness with form, great attention to tactility and skillful craftsmanship has given her a unique voice within Dutch design. Van Eijk's creative process is based on her emphatically independent and lively imagination, which she captures in drawings, sketches and textile collages. ''Imaginings'' is an ode to this imagination and presents an overview of Van Eijk's work to date. The book looks closely at her creative process as well, with images and descriptions of objects, sketches and preliminary studies. Texts are by Textiel Museum curator Suzan Russeler, theorist Lidewij Edelkoort, painter Marc Mulders and design writer Blaire Dessent.
