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(...)

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.

Résumé:
Frédéric Metz explique comment le design influence notre vie quotidienne, souvent à notre insu. Pour mieux en saisir la définition, il présente des exemples concrets puisés dans notre environnement. Ainsi, en regardant de près une banale tasse blanche, on découvre qu'il y a 50 ans un designer réputé a pensé à ajouter en dessous trois petites encoches qui facilitent(...)

Résumé:

Ainsi, en regardant de près une banale tasse blanche, on découvre qu'il y a 50 ans un designer réputé a pensé à ajouter en dessous trois petites encoches qui facilitent l'égouttement complet de l'eau à la sortie du lave-vaisselle. Une amélioration à peine perceptible qui montre que le bon design repose fréquemment sur d'infimes détails. Ces petites idées ingénieuses, basées sur de la simple logique, font toute la différence. Or, s'il y a de bons designs, il y a aussi de mauvais designs. Qui n'a pas cherché le bouton de sortie dans un ascenseur alors que la marche à suivre devrait être claire au premier coup d'oil ? Partout des indications contradictoires ou indéchiffrables nous font commettre des erreurs. Que ce soit un mode d'emploi, un panneau de signalisation ou un site web, les directives devraient être simples afin de nous procurer une expérience sans souci plutôt que frustrante. Résolument moderne, le design vise le travail bien fait, indémodable, intemporel, car un emballage attirant, un logo remarquable ou un objet conçu intelligemment ne perdent jamais de leur valeur.

Résumé:
Throughout his life Adolf Loos raised his eloquent voice against the squandering of fine materials, frivolous ornamentation and unnecessary embellishments. His admirers consider him to be the inspiration for all modern architecture. Yet, few are acquainted with his amusing, incisive, critical and philosophical literary work reflecting on applied design and the essence of clothing in fin de siècle Vienna. Adolf Loos often had a radical, yet innovative outlook on life that made him such a nuisance for many of his contemporaries. His provocative musings on many subjects portray him as a man of varied interests and intellectual refinement as well as possessing a keen sense of style, which still has value today. For the first time the ‘Loos Dress Code’ is available in English. Included is a short social/historical look as the birth of Modernism in Adolf Loos’ Vienna.

An attempt to debunk various misconceptions, half truths and, in some cases, outright lies which permeate the industry of design. Written both passionately and irreverently, Ward pulls from his ten years of experience to tackle lighter subjects such as design fetishists, Helvetica’s neutrality and urgent briefs, alongside discussions on more worthy topics such as the validity of design education, the supposed death of print, client relationships and pitch planning. In addition, the book features contributions from more than a dozen established practitioners such as Milton Glaser, Stefan Sagmeister, Christoph Niemann and David Carson

It espouses a working method that involves drawing up arbitrary constraints and rules of play, fostering both a strongly collaborative spirit and unpredictable end results. Its workbook format organizes the material step by step, and the publication as a whole provides exciting ways for others - groups of children as well as artists and designers - to apply the method themselves. In accompanying essays, Andrew Blauvelt elaborates on the implications of such processes for art and design, and Koert van Mensvoort describes how Conditional Design could form the basis for the design and organization of the city of Zhiango, China, in 2050.

“One comes home tired after having worked all day and finds an uncomfortable chair.” This is the start to Bruno Munari’s considerations on the choice between aesthetics and functionality when designing furniture. To support his thesis, Munari analyses the most obvious case of the armchair. You must have been seated on countless types of chair: very low ones, ones with a deep seat, ones with sharp edges, and so on. “But be honest : what is more restful than a tuppenny deckchair.” In Munari’s typically engaging style the great designer reminds us how we could go on inventing furniture each time fashions change when actually all that is needed is to perfect the most comfortable of the existing models, not forgetting the real purpose: comfort and durability.

Based on a morphological-functional consideration of the properties of household objects, the study proposes to organise the forms of artefacts, determine the significance of their parts and explain the relationships between objects and the environment, thus describing their most important basic properties while exploring the realm of functional form.
