Privés de la commande des meubles de luxe (monopole de la France) et de la grande série (fief de l'Allemagne et de l'Autriche), les décorateurs belges modernistes de l'entre-deux-guerres se sont frayé une voie originale et expérimentale. Le livre évoque leur histoire au coeur d'une période d'intenses changements, marquée par la naissance des contreplaqués qui remédient aux effets dévastateurs du chauffage central sur le mobilier, l'engouement pour le bois malléable, l'apparition des meubles en tubes chromés, du mobilier à combinaisons, de l'éclairage indirect, le renouveau du tissage, du papier peint, des bibelots... C'est une véritable aventure artistique qui se dévoile au cours de ces pages abondamment illustrées, et rédigées par une équipe de spécialistes, à partir des collections exceptionnelles du Centre international pour la ville, l'architecture et le paysage, bientôt abritées par un nouveau musée de Bruxelles : le Kanal-Centre Pompidou.

Résumé:
This sumptuously illustrated volume presents over 180 outstanding Viennese silver objects representing the period from Neoclassicism to the Wiener Werkstätte. Comparing early eighteenth-century works with examples of twentieth-century design and architecture, it offers a fascinating look at Vienna's contribution to the development of modern decorative arts. The authors demonstrate how the roots of modern design go back further than is generally assumed. Achieving remarkable clarity and formal reduction, Viennese Biedermeier designers created everyday objects of silver with astonishingly straightforward and purposeful forms that remain as progressive as ever today. In turn-of-the-century Vienna, Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser drew inspiration from the intellectual legacy of the period in their designs for the Wiener Werkstätte. Many of the ideas introduced by the Viennese avant-garde were later expressed in such movements as the Bauhaus and De Stijl. By examining this history in all its complexity, the book traces the development of the vocabulary for contemporary design.

Résumé:
Basketry is one of Japan’s oldest art forms. Since the eighth century, meticulously woven bamboo baskets have served daily functions, first in Buddhist liturgy and later in the tea ceremony. Over the past two centuries, bamboo art has risen to the status of fine art, with leading makers creating coveted works for ikebana and, more recently, sculptural objects celebrated as contemporary art. This elegant, richly illustrated volume presents over 160 baskets, highlighting their spectacular silhouettes and exquisite details—from complex weaving patterns and refined signatures to intricately plaited undersides. Informative captions reveal the techniques of an art now enjoying renewed attention, as bamboo offers a durable and ecological alternative to disposable materials. Most photographs were taken against specially conceived backdrops recalling the enigmatic architectural spaces of Giorgio de Chirico, while others show baskets with contemporary flower arrangements set before industrial waste-processing facilities, underscoring the book’s advocacy for bamboo as a renewable resource that challenges our throwaway plastic culture.

Now back in print with 37 new full-color plates of formerly black-and-white images, it is certain to be reaffirmed as a classic of design literature. The encyclopedic, lavishly illustrated volume spotlights seminal objects from the period's most significant innovators, including the Eames' iconic chairs; Noguchi's sculptural lamps; Sottsass's early, rebellious furniture; as well as jewelry, ceramics, and textiles by a range of contemporary masters. Historian Paul Johnson's essay provides a sociopolitical context for the works, and noted experts in various design fields offer a wealth of information.

While their building designs shaped Vienna’s urban landscape and exemplified the famous Secession movement, these three architects also applied their eclectic principles to domestic interiors, or Wohnkultur (meaning "living" or "dwelling culture"). This book follows the progress of their debates and works, and how each designer sought to frame his own distinctive vision of living. The result was a split between the imperatives of style, function and livability that is still in play today.

''At Home in the 17th Century'' opens the door to everyday domestic life and brings the reader closer to the people of the time—from everyday objects such as combs and brooms used for personal care and household chores, to wedding rings and christening gifts that marked important life events. Instead of familiar idealized genre paintings, this book focuses on real life. Accompanying the eponymous exhibition at the Rijksmuseum, this book, designed by Irma Boom, includes commentary from several of the museum's curators delving into the world behind the paintings: the residents and the objects that surrounded them. What people left behind—furniture, utensils and even pottery fragments found in cesspools—gives a picture of how they furnished and used their homes. The result is an intimate look behind the front door of the 17th century—into a world that is sometimes surprisingly recognizable, but often radically different as well.

Author and architect David Cole presents the 100 great Arts and Crafts houses, each individually described and analysed with insightful detail and floor plans, and illustrated with stunning photography. Beginning with Morris’s own iconic Red House, the book traces the fifty-year span of the movement, with a short chapter dedicated to each of these extraordinary houses: from the works of the pioneer Arts and Crafts architects, to the great reformer architects of the next generation, to the craftsman architects who took their lives and their work to the countryside, to the movement’s Scottish architects, and finally to the houses of the Garden Cities and suburbs built through the movement’s last decade before the First World War.
