Abstract

This vibrant book tells the history of the Modernist design movement and how it completely revolutionized graphic design.Graphic Design as an artistic genre wasn't universally accepted until the early 20th century. This striking book focuses on the pivotal years of 1919-1933 to show how fifty artists redefined the field and helped create modern graphic design. Art historian and graphic artist Alston Purvis provides a concise and engaging overview of the dawn of modern graphic design and the artistic possibilities that were laid bare in a seismically shifting Europe. He explores how a variety of burgeoning and established movements contributed to the innovations of graphic design such as the German Dadaists, the Bauhaus School, and the European avant-garde artists. He looks at how groundbreaking trends in typography, the rise of consumerism, and a new focus on schools of graphic design combined to create a new language of design that is still in use today. Featuring the designs of 50 pioneering artists, such as Walter Gropius, Paul Klee, and El Lissitzky, this book shows how their work in color, typography, and composition broke conventions and set new standards in a seminal period of graphic design.Bron: https://www.amazon.com/

Abstract

For decades, anyone who cared about product design looked to the Braun label when choosing their appliances, radios, and other consumer items. Now Dieter Rams, the guiding force behind the Braun look, breaks down his design principles and processes in this elegant book. Enumerating each of his ten principles such as good design is innovative; good design is aesthetic; good design is useful, etc., this book presents one hundred items that embody these guidelines. Readers will find items that are familiar such as the ubiquitous coffee grinder but also those that are more unusual such as shelving systems and cigarette lighters. A fascinating essay places Dieter Rams in the context of modern design, from Bauhaus to Philip Johnson. Archival materials include photos of Rams? design team and excerpts from his publications and speeches. The book closes with a chronological overview of design icons, categorized by function, that show the enormous breadth of Rams? vision. Taken together, these images and texts offer the most comprehensive overview of Dieter Rams? work to date and will serve as both a reference and an inspiration for anyone interested in how and why good design matters.Bron : https://www.copyrightbookshop.be/shop/dieter-rams-ten-principles-for-good-design-2/

Abstract

Color is inextricably linked with architecture; as a design element and also as an inherent quality, it characterizes the shape and texture of the built fabric. The book presents extraordinary color schemes, both in terms of technology and aesthetics, for ground-breaking architecture with a wide spectrum of functions: from apartment to concert hall, from flagship store to city park.The focus is on the works of the three architects Frank O. Gehry, Jean Nouvel and Wang Shu. This is expanded by the works of other practices such as BIG, Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito and SANAA.This publication presents a compendium that documents color schemes in architecture in the context of very different aesthetic approaches. The large-format photographs by Iwan Baan, Christian Richters, Roland Halbe and Philippe Ruault fascinate with their clarity and presence. Farbe ist unlösbar mit der Architektur verbunden - als Medium der Gestaltung, aber auch als eigene Qualität prägt sie Form und Textur des Gebauten.Das Buch präsentiert Farbgestaltungen avancierter Architektur, die in technologischer wie in ästhetischer Hinsicht außerordentlich sind, für ein breites Spektrum von Bauaufgaben: vom Apartment zur Konzerthalle, vom Flagship Store zum Stadtpark.Im Vordergrund stehen Werke der drei Architekten Frank O. Gehry, Jean Nouvel und Wang Shu. Erweitert wird das Spektrum durch Arbeiten anderer Büros wie beispielsweise BIG, Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron, Toyo Ito und SANAA.Mit dieser Darstellung liegt ein Kompendium vor, das Farbgestaltung in der Architektur in sehr unterschiedlichen ästhetischen Auffassungen dokumentiert. Die großformatigen Fotografien von Iwan Baan, Christian Richters, Roland Halbe und Philippe Ruault faszinieren durch ihre Klarheit und Präsenz.
