Summary:
What makes us love our things? Why do we attach certain sentiments to certain items? How is it that sometimes objects can tell stories more eloquently than people? These are questions explored and answered in "The uncommon life of common objects". Author Akiko Busch devotes a chapter to each of 12 common objects, and discusses her and others’ experiences that give everyday things their significance. Through her examination of : a video camera, a cellular phone, a vegetable peeler, a snowboard, a baby carriage, a chair, a refrigerator, a mailbox, a medicine cabinet, a cereal box, a backpack, and a desk, Busch illuminates the social and personal issues that shape our lives and the ownership of our things. Each of the 12 chapters is accompanied by a four-color drawing. Edited by Diana Murphy. Foreword by Susan S. Szenasy. Original illustrations by George Skelcher.

Summary:
''As Far as You Can See'', presented by COMMERCE, is the first comprehensive collection of Erik Kessels’s books, spanning from 1997 to today – including his latest, ''Incomplete Encyclopaedia of Touch''. This richly illustrated volume traces over two decades of Kessels’s artistic, editorial, and photographic explorations. Internationally known for his work with vernacular photography and visual storytelling, Kessels has crafted a body of work that captures the human, the everyday, and the absurd - one book at a time. The publication includes a new text by critic and curator Francesco Zanot, structured as a series of concise reflections - one for each book - offering a fragmented yet cohesive insight into Kessels’s evolving visual language. Designed by Cabinet Milano, the book features a modular layout that integrates video stills made in collaboration with Riccardo Ruffolo and Enrico Zanetti, also part of the accompanying exhibition.

Summary:
Since the late 1980s Dion (b. 1961, Massachusetts) has been delving into the tropes and research methods of scientists, explorers, museum curators and archaeologists. He has created a body of work that playfully presents art as scientific enquiry or field work, questioning how knowledge is gathered, classified and displayed. Five installations will be displayed at Whitechapel Gallery: a scholar’s study invites us to unravel intricate drawings and models; the "Bureau for the Centre of the Study for Surrealism and its Legacy" displays the strange magic of obsolete things; the muddy banks of the Thames have also yielded their treasures for poetic display in a gigantic cabinet; while a Dickensian Curiosity Shop tempts us with the bizarre aura of American bric-a-brac. Each immersive environment is also a habitat, evoking the characters that observe, conserve or exploit the natural world.

En 1931, elle intègre l'agence de Jacques-Émile Ruhlmann et épouse le décorateur Maurice Pré, avec qui elle travaille jusqu'en 1945. À l'Exposition internationale des arts et techniques de 1937 à Paris, ils réalisent Le Pied-à-terre d'un archéologue aux côtés de Maxime Old. Séparée de Maurice Pré, Janette Laverrière s'oriente vers un mobilier économique et novateur. Dès 1950, elle entre dans les collections du Mobilier national. Ses chantiers les plus importants sont l'aménagement du palais présidentiel de Niamey et l'Hôpital suisse de Paris. Dans son travail, couvrant une grande partie du XXe siècle, on retrouve une quête de simplicité et une poésie qui se révèlent particulièrement dans les miroirs qu'elle n'a cessé de créer de 1936 à aujourd'hui.

Summary:
From the Tower of Babel to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, from European cathedrals to the Twin Towers and the currently scandalous Freedom Tower, highrises have always been a symbol of mankind's cultural aspirations and technological achievements. The biennial International Highrise Award specifies that an ideal contemporary tower should make exceptional use of aesthetics, design and technology, and show cost-effectiveness, sustainability and integration into town planning. This album of the 2006 contenders honors foremost the winners, Jean Nouvel and Fermin Vasquez, who designed the Torre Agbar building in Barcelona. The Agbar Tower's distinctive rounded crown had already earned it a nominee spot in Cabinet Magazine's Most Phallic Building in the World Contest. Here, the Highrise Award's more serious honor cites the building's "expressive shape," "pulsating dynamism" and "a multi-layer outer skin that generates its varied and exciting appearance." Runners-up include Santiago Calatrava's Turning Torso in Malmo, Sweden.

Summary:
This issue of Harvard Design Magazine investigates and unpacks the contents, containers, and systems of storage that organize our world. Storage is the aggregation and containment of the material and immaterial stuff of culture; but also the safeguarding—or hoarding—of energy and tools for some imagined future purpose. How does all this stuff mask or overcompensate for economic and ecological bankruptcy? Is storage about greed or need? Storage, perhaps, is everything we can live without but insist on living with. "Shelf Life" explores what’s inside the box (shed, tank, urn, vault, crypt, crate, case, pot, bag, vat, morgue, safe, bin, archive, warehouse, cabinet, cellar, cemetery, depository, locker, freezer, landfill, library). Even as we attempt to reduce and recycle, the stuff that we dispose of also needs to be stored. Where do we put it? Our planet is now a saturated receptacle. This warehouse is full, and we’re all inside it.

Summary:
German designer Konstantin Grcic, winner of the Compasso d`Oro (Milan, 2001) among other awards, is a figure in the international scene. He has received numerous commissions from such prestigious names in the design industry as Authentics, Flos, iittala, Krups, Magis and Muji. From his initial training as a cabinet-maker, Grcic retains the hands-on approach and sensitivity to materials of a craftsman. His foray into contemporary design at the Royal College of Art in London, added a new dimension to his fascination with making things. As a result, every one of his products is informed by his research into the history of design and architecture, and a passion for technology. The book presents the work of KGID, show-casing a remarkable portfolio and offering an insight into the design process through the various stages of a product's development. Conceived by Florian Böhm and Konstantin Grcic, and illustrated with sketches, computer renderings and photographs.
