Résumé:
This book presents objects from the 21st Century by Spanish designers of the 21st century. This publication is motivated by the conviction that the concept of the object, as such, has been left behind. The universe of objects, or perhaps we would have to say of "offjects," put forward here is that of the work of those generation that graduated after the Barcelona Olympics: from 1992 into these first few years of the 21st century. What seems clear is that the classic definition of "design" has been rendered obsolete. In the first place because an object's conceptual and narrative charge largely determines its material and physical configuration, and in second place, because many present-day pieces are not produced industrially - some because their designers chose not to, others because they seem not to fit into excessively conservative industrial set-ups. What does seem to be the case is that we are dealing with a new typology of designer, more open, more multidisciplinary and more remote from the traditional commercial circuit, which is not to say remote from the market.

Résumé:
The occupation of space is a trend that can currently be recognized in many creative fields. While furniture and product design were once largely driven by classical industrial and interior design, these disciplines are now also being shaped by the visual culture of graphic design and high-tech production processes. These new influences are contributing to the creation of furniture and interiors that go beyond anything previously designed or imagined. Furnish presents domestic territories that expand upon our current understanding of interior design. The book documents recent work by designers, artists and architects that shows how they are using furniture in pioneering ways: as environment, as art object, as digital-organic growth, as mutation or as insertion. These cutting-edge examples are a sure indicator of the trends that will be influencing interiors as well as hotel, restaurant and club design for the next several years. Furnish also explores the new hybrid nature of occupied spaces, where the domestic enters the realm of fine art and where objects from pimped heirlooms to rapid prototypes find their homes. The book also presents surprising interdisciplinary work, for example, the results of architects engineering tables, graphic designers creating soft furniture and industrial designers making concept art. The experimental spaces that are shown in Furnish are not only interesting for interior designers, but also contain innovative examples of interdisciplinary design work that are relevant and inspiring for anyone working creatively.

Résumé:
In the fields of design - interior, product, industrial, fashion and architecture, no single creative element matters more than the materials used to create the product. Materials underpin all of the design criteria implemented by the designers and unequivocally influence the end result. Simply Materials presents a broad selection of objects created using a range of sophisticated new technologies and many born of traditional handcraftsmanship. This book introduces the reader to a variety of materials that can be used to create objects or art forms of great beauty in an array of irregular shapes, sizes and compositions. It demonstrates clearly how composition alone is able to liberate materials from the category of raw junk into materials that arouse great visual interest. With contributors including BOEK (PIET HEIN EEK), Tim Parsons, Sand & Birch Design, Contraforma, and many more. This is the first volume in the groundbreaking new series Simply.. From Victionary.

Résumé:
Activité noble par excellence, le design consiste à rechercher une réponse intelligente, fonctionnelle et si possible esthétique à nos besoins, des plus quotidiens aux plus extraordinaires. Pourtant, aujourd'hui il s'apparente plus à un label de mode ou de style. Le mot «design» a-t-il été vidé de son sens? Est-il devenu un vague concept de marketing et de communication? La réponse est oui, et en voici la démonstration. S'appuyant sur de nombreux exemples d'objets, l'intervention de quelques uns des plus grands designers et le parcours de James Dyson, une nouvelle démarche de création est proposée: le ProDesign un design axé sur l'innovation et une approche responsable, ergonomique, économique et durable au service des utilisateurs-consommateurs du monde entier.

Résumé:
The anatomy of our bodies invites sitting; but do we design seats in the same way? Has our means of sitting been colonized by modern design? And how is the culturally various act of sitting itself reflected in this functional commodity? Italian artist Matteo Guarnaccia’s (born 1993) ''Cross cultural chairs'' is a research-based design project ''about the cultural context of furniture, understanding how globalization is shaping design around the world.'' He writes, ''it’s an exploration that lies between social and technical aspects of chairs.'' To execute this project, Guarnaccia visited eight different countries to conduct research and talk to local design studios, ultimately collaborating with them to portray each culture in the form of a chair. Cross Cultural Chairs plumbs the hidden depths of furniture design and the ways in which cultural norms assert themselves through functional commodities, opening up a conversation about identity, community and expression through chairs.

Résumé:
The chairs in this private collection are not an assembly of objects of everyday use. They are a congregation of creatures often eluding their primary purpose as seating. Metaphorically exaggerated height and disassociation transform the chairs into individuals, or sculptures exploring the uncertain boundaries of physics. The book’s generous layout allows readers to immerse themselves in this cabinet of curiosities and give their imagination free rein. Nicolas Polli and Jean Vincent Simonet use their photographic essays to interpret the exhibits originating from well-known artists and designers. The texts illustrate the collection in terms of the friction between art and design. They explain the collection’s significance in the life of the collector, and they discuss the general motives that lead to a passion for collecting.

''U-Joints – A taxonomy of connections'' looks at human history through its details, and invites us to see design and architecture in new ways. Comprehensive and interdisciplinary, U-JOINTS is a collective project that brings together the voices and viewpoints of more than 120 authors. Together they “tell” design and architecture in the form of stories, essays, interviews, statements, visits to factories, reportage, facts and figures and, not least, a vast taxonomy of joints. Photo portfolios examine how joints are produced, illustrate their diverse uses, or simply show the inherent yet often overlooked beauty of connections in the man-made world.
