PATTERN presents 100 outstanding fashion designers selected by 10 of the field's leading professionals, including designers, stylists, editors, educators, bloggers and writers. Truly global in scope, it has collected the world's most exceptional international young designers from fashion's four capitals – London, Paris, Milan and New York – as well as from other less prominent but no less flourishing centres of activity, such as Sydney, Amsterdam and Los Angeles. The 100 fashion designers are arranged in alphabetical order, with each featured on their own two double-page spreads. Combining photographs, sketches, drawings and computer renderings, PATTERN explains the processes behind seasonal collections, as well as showcasing final pieces from the realms of menswear, womenswear, shoes, hats and accessories. Concise, descriptive texts by curators explain the designers' work and the characteristics that make their fashion groundbreaking. PATTERN is a meticulously crafted book that gives exposure to previously unseen archive material including formative sketches and candid, backstage photographs. Presented in a printed Tyvek shoulder bag, it is a collectors' piece made for the truly style-conscious, as well as an indispensable reference tool for anyone with an interest in fashion.

Der Einsatz von Robotern in der Architektur ist schon heute Alltag: So automatisieren Roboter Vorgänge, die früher manuell erledigt wurden, es entstehen mit Hilfe von 3D-Druck-Robotern komplexe Formen und autonom agierende Schwarmroboter können im Zusammenspiel komplexe Bauten errichten. Wie wirkt sich der Einsatz von Robotern auf die so entstehenden Bauten eigentlich aus, wie beeinflusst er das Denken der Architekten, die mit Robotern arbeiten? Robotic Building geht diesen Fragen anhand von vielen praktischen Beispielen nach. Ein abschließendes Kapitel befasst sich mit der Idee von Architektur als Roboter, dem voll-automatisiertem Haus und ähnlichen Konzepten, in denen der Roboter mit der Umwelt verschmilzt und Teil unseres Erlebens wird. The use of robots in architecture is already commonplace: robots automate processes that were previously done manually. Complex shapes are created with the help of 3D printing while autonomous swarms of robots construct complex buildings. How does the use of robots affect the resulting structures; how does it affect the thinking of architects who work with robots? Robotic Building answers these questions with several practical examples. A final chapter explores the idea of architect as robot, the fully-automated home and similar concepts in which the robot merges with its environment and becomes part of our experience.
