The Design Book
Inbunden bok.
Mycket gott skick. [Format: 13 x 17 cm.] Phaidon Press, New York 2013. 511 (1) pages in publisher's green cloth hardcover with title embossed within silver imprinted background on front board and spine. Back board text silver imprinted. Richly illustrated (to say the least) in color aswell as black and white. By the looks of it, with a small majority to the color illustrations. The selection of color vs. black and white prints is, in my opinion of course, properly done. Index of designers, author list and picture credits are found in the end. --- Price tag on backside. Otherwise close to mint. --- Synopsis (not back board text): Discover 500 of the most innovative, influential, and enduring products from the last five centuries in one compact and highly collectable volume. The Design Book presents iconic pieces by Le Corbusier, Philippe Starck, the Eames, and the Apple design team, alongside classic objects such as the paper clip, the hurricane lantern, and the martini glass. Each entry pairs an image with a descriptive caption, providing accessible information about the product, designer, manufacturer, and history. Take an extraordinary journey through the objects that have improved our functionality, shaping our society and culture today.
