Design is all around us, it is impossible to avoid. Everything that surrounds us has been designed - from the paperclip and the iPod, to our homes and the way we live. "Design: Intelligence Made Visible" forms the definitive statement on design for this century. Written by Stephen Bayley, one of the world's best known commentators on modern culture and Terence Conran, one of the world's leading designers and arbiters of taste, this new mini edition pays tribute to the leading names, movements, materials and processes such as furniture, fashion, cars, graphics, products, signs and symbols.
Dostępność: na zamówienie Around half a year ago, a map was published in the Kommersant daily's real estate supplement that showed the location and price per square meter of elite housing projects in central Moscow. The highest prices were in the Ostozhenka district, and two Project Meganom architecture studio projects were specifically mentioned. $10,000 per square meter - a price comparable to London's Chelsea or Paris XVI Arrondisement districts. Moscow's elite apartment projects are quite modest compared with their foreign counterparts. True, they are well designed - their architecture is actually more up-to-date than exclusive projects in the West.
Chairs displayed on their own as pure form An overview of the 20th century More than any other piece of furniture, the chair has been subjected to the wildest dreams of the designers. The particular curve of a backrest, or the twist of a leg, the angle of a seat or the color of the entire artifact all reflect the stylistic consciousness of each era. From Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto to Verner Panton to Eva Zeisel, from Art Nouveau to International Style, from Pop Art to Postmodernism, the phenomenon of the chair is so complex that it requires a reference work as comprehensive as this to do it full justice. They are all here: Thonet’s bentwood chairs and Hoffmann’s sitting-machines, Marcel Breuer’s Wassily chair and Ron Arad’s avant-garde armchairs.
Dostępność: na zamówienie Bathrooms are a focus feature in the 21st century home, and where space allows there is usually more than one. The most desirable configuration is an en suite shower room - a streamlined space for a quick and efficient cleanse and preparation in the morning, and in addition a separate, larger and more indulgent room where there is a bath and possibly a steam enclosure and enough space to pamper, relax and unwind. As a valuable resource book, "Bathrooms" proves that it is no longer just the bath versus shower option that needs to be considered.

New Yorkers laugh it off because they know the secret: it's even better when you live there. New York Interiors offers readers the chance to see the Big Apple`s most fabulous pads in all their eccentric splendor. The Hell's Angel who sleeps next to a coffin, the painter who makes art from trash, the woman who's brought Provence to Downtown, the couple who live in the Brooklyn of the 19th century— "typical" New Yorkers` homes are presented alongside those of its glitterati (such as Leo Castelli, Wolfgang Joop, Isabella Rossellini and Steven Spielberg).
Pozycja niedostępna. Prosimy nie zamawiać Poczas gdy przestrzenny podział pomiędzy kuchnią, pokojem dziennym i jadalnią od zawsze był oddzielny, dziś bardzo często przestrzeń w której jadamy jest zintegrowana z pokojem dziennym. Powierzchnie zaprojektowane w sposób tak otwarty tworzą ogromne i przyjazne przestrzenie, które promują interakcje między uczestnikami życia w danym domu. Decyzyjnym tutaj jest kształt stołu do jedzenia, choć i rodzaj oświetlenia. Jeżeli projekt realizowany jest w małym pomieszczeniu - idealnym do takiego rozwiązania jest mały okrągły stół jadalny połączony z okrągłą lampą.
London is swinging again. The latest design trends, the best musicals, the most innovative plays and films are born in the capital of "Cool Britannia". What catches on in Notting Hill, Soho and Hoxton now influences taste as far away as the North Cape and Tierra del Fuego. At the same time, the city on the Thames, one of the most cosmopolitan on the planet, is home to people from every corner of the world and has assimilated many of their traditions and tastes. With over 300 pages of rich colour photographs, "London Interiors" takes an intimate look at more than 40 private residences, among others the Indian-inspired hideaway of musician Talvin Singh and an amusing houseboat moored in Kew.
Large-format hardcover edition at a new low price The sights, smells and sounds of India draw legions of travellers every year in awe of the changing terrain and countryside, but to truly experience the range and diversity of this huge country one needs to gaze into the many spectacular residences, as rich and eclectic as the landscape that surrounds them. Indian Interiors provides a longing glimpse into these exotic abodes. India's visual culture is ruled by bright colours, religious decoration and the unrelenting heat of the sun, and designers have responded to this challenge in many ways over the centuries.
