Résumé:
In Evocative Objects, Turkle collects writings by scientists, humanists, artists, and designers that trace the power of everyday things. These essays reveal objects as emotional and intellectual companions that anchor memory, sustain relationships, and provoke new ideas. These days, scholars show new interest in the importance of the concrete. This volume's special contribution is its focus on everyday riches: the simplest of objects - an apple, a datebook, a laptop computer - are shown to bring philosophy down to earth. The poet contends, "No ideas but in things." The notion of evocative objects goes further: objects carry both ideas and passions. In our relations to things, thought and feeling are inseparable. Whether it's a student's beloved 1964 Ford Falcon (left behind for a station wagon and motherhood), or a cello that inspires a meditation on fatherhood, the intimate objects in this collection are used to reflect on larger themes - the role of objects in design and play, discipline and desire, history and exchange, mourning and memory, transition and passage, meditation and new vision.

Résumé:
A new edition of one of the most widely read books on modern design Nikolaus Pevsner's landmark work was first published in 1936. Pevsner saw Modernism as a synthesis of three main sources: William Morris and his followers; the work of the 19th-century engineers; and Art Nouveau. All these form the essential background to the work of the early Modernists, with their rejection of ornament, their use of new materials and their commitment to "utility" and the machine age. Pevsner looks at the early masters of the movement, such as Voysey and Rennie Mackintosh in Britain; Sullivan and Lloyd Wright in America; and Loos and Wagner in Vienna, ending in 1914, with Walter Gropius and the Bauhaus movement representing design's most radical break with the past.

Comment le logo du Centre Pompidou a-t-il été créé ? Une théorie urbaine peut-elle s'exprimer dans la conception matérielle d'un livre ? Le design graphique a-t-il servi la cause des femmes ? En quoi consistent les archives spécialisées ? Les textes réunis ici racontent des histoires de signes et d'objets : identités visuelles, affiches et imprimés divers, livres, pochettes de disque ou caractères typographiques. La production de nombreux graphistes est examinée à travers des champs variés, de l'architecture au jazz, de l'art contemporain à la littérature et à l'édition pour la jeunesse. Composant majeur de la culture visuelle contemporaine, le design graphique façonne notre environnement : il requiert donc la plus grande attention

Qu'est-ce qu'un designer s'adresse aux étudiants et aux professionnels de l'architecture de tous les domaines du design et de l'architecture. Loin de se contenter d'un questionnement (ou d'une réponse) bien formulé, Norman Potter énonce les conditions dans lesquelles l'activité de design constitue en elle-même une question ouverte. Il affirme que les décisions du designer - et les artefacts qu'elles produisnet - sont tenues de proposer une réponse sur le plan social. Potter décrit également les procédures et la méthodologie indispensable à toute solution de design.

Résumé:
Les lunettes permettent à ceux qui ne voyaient plus, ou mal, de recouvrer la vue. C'est un fait. Et l'on pourrait pensera priori que c'est un bienfait. Mais il n'en est rien. Car on oublie de dire que, dans bien des cas, le remède peut s'avérer pire que le mal... Partant de ce constat médical qui se développe particulièrement dans les années 1930, cet ouvrage d'archéologie visuelle creuse une logique de pensée, simple, mais oubliée ou occultée, selon laquelle les techniques compensatoires se retournent en fait contre ce qu'elles sont censées suppléer. Une telle façon de penser est largement soumise aux fantasmes : Breughel, Callot, Rowlandson, Degas, Hoffmann, Poe, Huxley ou même le Dr Bates ont développé, chacun à leur manière, une méfiance à l'égard des lunettes. Mais ces fantasmes, à l'égal de la caricature ou du lieu commun, nous rappellent à tous, en définitive, que ces " précieuses béquilles " ne constituent pas toujours une seconde nature. À travers l'histoire des lunettes et de leur représentation, c'est donc à une véritable réflexion sur la notion de prothèse que nous convie cet ouvrage. Et, à travers la science, la sociologie, l'histoire, la littérature et l'art, ces lentilles philosophiques nous révèlent donc quelque chose de notre rapport au monde.

Résumé:
And Now the Ensemble!!! is intended as a challenge to architects, their clients, and commissioning authorities to understand and create urban development as a dynamic and collective work of art and to make dialogue central to design. Design, atmosphere, and usage can make every new building relate to its local surroundings. As a design process, this contextual expansion does not simply imitate the urban pattern, but also interprets what is already there, to some extent modernizes it, makes the familiar alien by employing unusual atmospheric imagery, and ultimately transforms the accumulated chaos of soloists into an orchestrated whole.
