Résumé:
Whether it's design, interiors or architecture, the client list for the Swedish firm Sandell Sandberg reads like a roster of the world's edgiest companies, including B Italia, Artimide, Ericsson, Electrolux and IKEA. This first-ever comprehensive book about the firm, established in 1995, shows off the powerful, idiosyncratic sense of form that has placed principal Thomas Sandell at the forefront of the international architecture and design scene. Sandell's playful approach characterizes projects ranging from IKEA lamps or vacation retreats that look like they were designed for modernist trolls, to housing for the underprivileged in suburban communities. A substantial book on a designer whose influence will only grow with the decades.

Résumé:
Dallegret’s own life and work denies anything so predictable as a neat synopsis, but in essence his work, beginning in Paris in the late 1950s and early 60s, and later taking in New York and Montréal, absorbs everything from intricate line drawings for a series of astrological vehicles and designs for a number of machines (from those that assist in cooking a meal to others that generate literature) to the ‘A Home Is Not a House’ collaboration with the critic Reyner Banham; a drugstore/gallery in Montréal; proposals for a new Montréal Palais Metro; designs for chairs, more cars and yet more machines; a film collaborative set up to shoot a western; contributions to the Montréal 67 Expo; engraved bars of soap; subversive credit cards; ‘ironique’ villas and light installations. The book will illustrate a great many of these works and contains essays on Dallegret’s life and legacy by the historians Alessandra Ponte and Laurent Stalder. GOD & CO is published to accompany an exhibition at the Architectural Association, London.

Résumé:
"La couleur nous inpire des expériences qui racontent notre style et notre philosophie de la société. Nous la travaillons comme une quatrième dimension, composante essentielle pour imaginer l'espace et la vie de demain... Quand nous avons réalisé notre première expérience en 1995, la couleur semblait dérangeante, son rôle passait au second plan. Le monochrome a été notre postulat, pour une approche radicale des volumes, des matières et des textures. Notre envie des couleurs est toujours spontanée et intuitive. Nous la spatialisons pour poétiser le présent et matérialiser le futur" "Colour is the catalyst in our experimental approach to style and society. We explore it like a fourth dimension and it is an essential part of the way we imagine space and things to come. When we carried out our first experience in 1995, colour seemed disturbing and took a secondary role. Monochrome was our main statement in a radical approach to volumes, materials and textures. Our desire for colour is still spontaneous and intuitive. We spatialise it to enhance the present and shape the future" - Olivier Guillemin & Olivier Védrine

Résumé:
L’architecte Le Corbusier (1887-1965) est également connu dans le monde entier pour les meubles qu’il a dessinés. Le fauteuil grand confort LC2 ou la chaise longue LC4 – conçus tous deux en 1928 en collaboration avec Pierre Jeanneret et Charlotte Perriand – comptent parmi les classiques du mobilier moderne et sont produits encore aujourd’hui. De nombreux ouvrages ont été publiés sur les réalisations architecturales de Le Corbusier et les meubles emblématiques de la fin des années 1920, mais ce qu’il a imaginé et créé dans le domaine de l’aménagement d’intérieur n’a jamais été traité dans sa globalité. La présente publication vient combler cette lacune. Les essais du début retracent l’évolution de Le Corbusier en tant qu’architecte d’intérieur, depuis les premiers travaux classicisants jusqu’aux réalisations minimalistes de la maturité, en passant par les célèbres manifestes des années 1920 et 1930. La collaboration avec Pierre Jeanneret et Charlotte Perriand est également analysée en détail.

Résumé:
Presenting illustrations gathered together for the first time, Le Corbusier: Furniture and Interiors is a comprehensive account of Le Corbusier’s extensive work in furniture and interior design. As a young architect, Swiss-born Charles-Edouard Jeanneret primarily worked in designed furnishings. After he moved to Paris in the early 1920s and adopted his now famous moniker, Le Corbusier developed a particular interest in équipement, a term he coined for the essential furnishings of a residence. He focused specifically on tables, cabinets, and eventually the chrome and leather chairs—designed in collaboration with Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand—for which he became famous. These pieces exhibit Le Corbusier’s trademark metal detailing and elegant austerity. After World War II, Le Corbusier shifted to more functional designs for use in everyday life. These wooden pieces resemble packing crates, evoking a rustic design aesthetic rooted in functionality.
