Abstract

Écrit par trois historiens du design de renommée internationale au terme de plusieurs années d'investigation, cet ouvrage de référence nous propose la première grande rétrospective critique sur le design européen. Après une étude approfondie des forces complexes (sociales, politiques, économiques et culturelles) qui ont nourri le design européen depuis la Seconde Guerre mondiale, en s'appuyant sur le travail d'un grand nombre de designers établis et émergents, Le design européen depuis 1985 décrit les principaux mouvements conceptuels et esthétiques apparus depuis le milieu des années 1980 (Design décoratif, expressif, minimal géométrique, biomorphique, néopop, conceptuel, néo-Dada-surréaliste, néodécoratif). Enrichi de centaines de photographies en couleur destinées à illustrer les objets les plus emblématiques de cette période, ce livre exceptionnel fera assurément date dans l'histoire du design. Il nous présente pour la première fois les designers, les mouvements et les objets qui ont contribués à façonner le design européen au cours des vingt dernières années.

Abstract

Tapio Periäinen’s book Soul in Design: Finland as an Example gives a regionalist interpretation to the spirit of Finnish design of the 1980s. The book showcases examples from various fields: furniture, textiles, ceramics, tableware, fashion, interiors, industrial and commercial products, jewellery, glassware, graphics, and art pieces. Periäinen is both an architect and a social scientist, and he acted as the managing director for the Finnish Society of Crafts and Design between 1975–1994. Soul in Design discusses design examples from the viewpoints of trends, functionality, tradition, authenticity and nature.

Abstract

The work of women designers has not traditionally been the focus of mainstream histories of design. By revealing the untold story of female design pioneers, this comprehensive introduction celebrates their crucial role in the history of modern processes of making. Arranged chronologically, this guide considers the structural barriers to professional success and how women overcame these hurdles, charting the success of designers including Anni Albers at the Bauhaus, the architect Eileen Grey, interior decorator Elsie de Wolfe and fashion icon Mary Quant, focusing on the key subjects of architecture, craft, fashion, furniture, graphics, interior, product and textile design. The link between early twentieth-century revolutionary design and lifestyle is explored, as well the ideas of shopping and consumerism as a liberating activity. The important contribution of designers during and after the Second World War is also discussed, along with design activism, design collectives and the current success of women working transnationally in architecture and design.
