Abstract

En 1938, Vienne a perdu ses esprits les plus brillants et les plus créatifs. Cette rupture s’est manifestée dans tous les arts et les sciences et son empreinte se fait sentir jusqu’à aujourd’hui – notamment dans le domaine du design de meubles. Avec une créativité inépuisable, les designers de meubles juifs qui ont été contraints de fuir Vienne ont continué à travailler pendant leur exil. Ils ont enseigné dans les meilleures universités et ont diffusé leurs idées et leur vision dans le monde entier. Leurs créations sont devenues des classiques du design mobilier du XXe siècle, incarnant le style moderne du milieu du siècle. Ce livre honore la mémoire des designers en exil en présentant un aperçu complet de leur travail. Il détaille leurs histoires de vie et leurs conceptions visionnaires, qui restent aussi pertinentes et contemporaines que jamais, et met en lumière de nouveaux aspects de l’histoire du design mobilier viennois.

Abstract

The book discusses how to include artificial intelligence (AI) systems in the early stages of the design process. Today designers need new tools capable of supporting them in dealing with the increasing project’s complexity and empowering their performances and capabilities. AI systems appear to be powerful means to enhance designers’ creativity. This assumption was tested in a workshop where sixteen participants collaborated with three AI systems throughout the creative phases of research, sketching, and color selection. Results show that designers can access a broader level of variance and inspiration while reducing the risk of fossilization by triggering lateral thinking through AI-generated data. Therefore, AI could significantly impact the creative phases of the design process if applied consciously. Being AI systems intelligent agents, the book treats the Human-AI collaboration as a collaboration between human agents, proposing a set of guidelines helpful to achieving an efficient partnership with the machine.

Abstract

Welcome to the hybrid home, in which the bathroom has become a temple of wellness, the living room an online couch, and the kitchen a lounge. Everything appears tidy and chic, perfect for social media. In the Instagram Age, even micro-apartments are mutating into semi-public places. The German journalist Oliver Herwig has been studying the transformation of living spaces and dream interiors for years. In this book, he portrays a society in the throes of digital transformation. The lines between work, leisure and rest have been blurred, as our homes become temporary, multipurpose work, fun and multimedia spaces; the office has invaded the home, and the world of smart shopping is always just a word away thanks to Alexa. Nothing quite fits anymore, yet everything must have its place. Welcome to the hybrid home. Willkommen im hybriden Heim. Das Bad wird zum Wellnesstempel, das Wohnzimmer zur Online-Couch neben der Wohnküche. Alles wirkt aufgeräumt und chic, perfekt zu posten. Im Instagram-Zeitalter mutieren selbst Mikrowohnungen zu halböffentlichen Orten. SZ-Autor Oliver Herwig beschäftigt sich seit Jahren mit dem Wandel von Wohnräumen und Wohnträumen. In diesem Buch porträtiert er zugleich eine Gesellschaft im digitalen Wandel. Unsere vier Wände verschwimmen zu temporären Vielzweck-Arbeits-Spaß-und-Multimedia-Räumen, das Büro dringt ins Zuhause vor und die smarte Einkaufswelt ist mittels Alexa und Co nur ein Wort entfernt. Nichts will mehr passen. Doch alles muss Platz haben. Willkommen im hybriden Heim.

Abstract

In 1938, Vienna lost its best and most creative minds. This rupture was manifested in all of the arts and sciences and its mark is felt to this day – not least in the field of furniture design. With inexhaustible creativity the Jewish furniture designers who were forced to flee Vienna continued to work while in exile. They taught at the best universities and spread their ideas and vision throughout the entire world. Their creations became classics of twentieth-century furniture design, the epitome of mid-century modern style. This book honors the memory of the exiled designers with a thorough overview of their work. It details their life stories and their visionary designs, which remain as relevant and contemporary as ever, and brings to light new aspects of the history of Viennese furniture design. Wien verlor im Jahr 1938 seine kreativsten und besten Köpfe: Ein Riss in der Zeit, der sich quer durch alle Wissenschaften und Künste manifestierte und bis heute spürbar bleibt – auch im Möbeldesign. Mit ihrer unerschöpflichen Kreativität wirkten die vertriebenen jüdischen Möbeldesignerinnen und -designer aus Wien im Exil weiter. Sie unterrichteten an den besten Universitäten und verbreiteten ihre Ideen und Visionen auf der gesamten Welt. Ihre Möbel wurden zu Designklassikern des 20. Jahrhunderts, zum Inbegriff des Mid-Century Modern Style. Dieser Überblick ruft das Möbeldesign der vertriebenen Designerinnen und Designer in Erinnerung: Er vergegenwärtigt ihre Lebensgeschichten und ihre visionären Entwürfe, die heute aktueller sind denn je, und fördert neue Aspekte der Geschichte des Möbeldesigns aus Wien zutage.

Inspired by this approach, Inter IKEA Systems and Phaidon have teamed up to explore the greatest challenge of our generation - living sustainably - through the lives of activists, artists, athletes, entrepreneurs and many more.Achieving a more sustainable life at home is one of the most pressing social and environmental challenges we face today as a society.
