‎Art Nouveau‎

‎Hardcover, 96 pages, ENG, 230 x 230 mm, book in new state, illustrations / images in colour. ISBN 9781906734640. Art Nouveau: An art movement that manifested itself between 1890 and 1914. The term Art Nouveau is mainly used in Belgium and France, while in Austria and Germany Jugendstil is used. In Spain, on the other hand, the term modernism is used to make it easy for the style that broke through with us a few decades later. Common is the asymmetrical, the second style in all of art history to use this (the first is the rococo), and the use of animal and floral motifs. Art Nouveau was used everywhere, from architecture to furniture, from coffee services to jewellery.‎

‎SERRURIER-BOVY. A VISIONARY DESIGNER 1858 - 1910‎

‎Bound, red cloth, illustrated dustjacket, 230 x 305mm., pres de 500 illustrations en couleurs. ISBN 9782878441109. 'Believe in the future and work for it'? The oeuvre of Gustave Serrurier, more than fifty years before Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand, blazed the trail to contemporary design. Gustave Serrurier, known as Serrurier-Bovy, was born in Liege in 1858 and died in the same city in 1910. He was one of most original figures in the Belgian avant-garde and the international art revival which characterised the decorative arts and architecture in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Initially destined for architecture, he switched to the design and manufacture of furniture and decors, taking over the home decoration store run by his wife, Marie Bovy. He shook free of Art Nouveau aesthetics and the return to craftsmanship advocated by the Arts and Crafts movement to design furniture for the masses with a rational aesthetic, stripped of all superfluous ornament, which heralded the modern home. This richly illustrated book is the fruit of fifteen years of research by the owners of the Chateau of La Cheyrelle, remodelled by Gustave Serrurier. It traces the life of the architect-designer and looks at all the facets of his oeuvre from his avant-garde thinking to his main furniture and architectural designs. A detailed analysis of his production unravels its complexity and restores Gustave Serrurier to his rightful place as a visionary designer at the dawn of the twentieth century. New book.‎

‎Jacques Grange : Oeuvres récentes‎

‎Hardcover, 376 pages, FR, 320 x 250 mm, NOUVEAU, jacquette, illustrations en couleur. ISBN 9782080280862. En cinquante ans de carrière, Jacques Grange s?est imposé comme le décorateur des maisons de grands collectionneurs, artistes, designers et créateurs de tendances. De sa formation classique à l?École Boulle et à l?École Camondo et de sa passion pour l?art contemporain sont nées une vision unique et une approche inimitable du design à la française, à l?origine de son style intemporel. À travers une trentaine de projets récents en Europe et en Amérique, c?est toute l?étendue des inspirations et le goût raffiné du designer qui se manifestent dans des lieux auxquels il a su apporter sa touche singulière. Ce livre navigue entre un luxueux hôtel particulier à Paris, des demeures à Londres et New York, une cabane chic en bord de mer à Comporta au Portugal, jusqu?à une mythique maison des années 1950 à Los Angeles. Le texte de Pierre Passebon propose une analyse des fondements du travail de Jacques Grange, de sa conception éclectique et raffinée en évolution permanente. Les photographies inédites de François Halard capturent ces projets singuliers avec une profonde sensibilité.‎

‎Paperback, 175 pages, Texte en Francais, 310 x 235 mm, Tres belle exemplaire !, illustrations en couleur / n/b. ISBN 9782909283470. The French designer turned his playful creations into a serious business, winning admirers who have ranged from Middle Eastern royalty to Kanye West and Jennifer Aniston. Illustrated with works offered at Christie's In 1947, Jean Royère (1902-1981) designed a sofa that embodied both his own emerging style and the joie de vivre of the post-war period ? an elegantly rounded beast in soft white velvet that came to be known as the Ours polaire (Polar Bear). The sofa and the archairs that went with it have since become collector's items: in 2017, a cream sofa sold at Christie's for 439,500; a pair of pale-gold armchairs (below) for almost double that.‎

‎Dictionary of English Furniture : from the Middle Ages to the Late Georgian Period : Revised Edition‎

‎Paperback + hardcover,300 x 215 mm, 3 volumes, ACA-CHA : 350 pages / CHE - MUT : 384 pages / NAI - ZUC : 376 pages ; 1110 pages total, books are in very good condition, illustrated in colour / b/w, cassette / protection box. ISBN 9781851490370. The Dictionary of English Furniture by Ralph Edwards (1954 Revised Edition) is the most authoritative general work on English antique furniture ever published. The first edition of this work was published 1924-27. It was instantly recognised as the primary reference on the evolution of English furniture from the Middle Ages to the Late Georgian period. It was consistently in demand and soon went out of print. The Second Edition, published in 1954, was entirely revised and enlargedby one of the two original collaborators, Ralph Edwards, who at that time was Keeper of the Department of Woodwork at the Victoria and Albert Museum. He was an outstanding authority, well placed to produce such a mammoth revision. The Dictionary is, within its chronological limits, a comprehensive survey of the whole wide field of English domestic furniture. Later research has added details but the basic body of knowledge remains unchallenged. It remains the standard book referred to in all sale catalogues‎

‎THE ART OF THE ILLUSTRATED BOOK : 700 Years of History and Design‎

‎Hardcover, 288 pages, ENG, 300 x 235 mm, NEW, dustjacket, illustrations in colour and b/w. ISBN 9780500480694. The story of the illustrated book from the earliest printed books to the present day, told through the collections of the V&A's National Art Library. Throughout history, images have been used to reflect the meaning of words and to enhance our understanding of texts. With the invention of mechanized printing in Germany in the 15th century, illustrated books were no longer the preserve of the elite and became a source of knowledge, instruction and pleasure for a wider audience. Traditional accounts of the illustrated book survey its history in terms of technological advances, from illumination to hand-drawn illustrations and photography. This study offers a new approach, grouping books by subject - from natural history and travel to art, architecture and fashion. Gathered here are some of the most influential and compelling examples of the illustrated book, all chosen from the collections of the National Art Library at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Each chapter starts with a general introduction to the subject, followed by key examples accompanied by narrative captions. The commentaries range beyond the illustrations to consider the whole book, the design, typeface, binding, inks and papers. Many of the books are not on display to the public and have been specially photographed for this volume. Most examples have been chosen for their significance, being innovative and beautiful. But humble books, often overlooked in histories, have also been selected, when particularly effective in their field, or simply memorable. From beautiful printed Psalters and Books of Hours, to striking natural history books such as Audubon's Birds of America, La Fontaine's Fables illustrated by Marc Chagall, Serlio's treatise on architecture and Owen Jones's Grammar of Ornament, this book gives a fascinating overview of some of the finest illustrated books ever created. In the face of recent pronouncements about the death of the printed book, this volume demonstrates the enduring appeal of the illustrated book.‎

‎DEEP-SEATED The Secret Art of Upholstery / BESESSEN Die geheime Kunst des Polsterns‎

‎softcover 392 pages ,300 X 210 X 27 mm , 390 illustrations, Text in Deutsch / Englisch. ISBN 9783897906815. BESESSEN Die geheime Kunst des Polsterns Upholstered seating is familiar to all of us as a more or less constant companion in everyday life. Upholstery conveys a sense of security and promises comfort, suggests or creates status, and tells a (hi)story. We barely give a thought to its interior. Yet a glimpse inside the chairs and armchairs is a journey into secrets, of lashed and sprung constructions, which prove to be unknown masterpieces of craftsmanship. DEEP-SEATED: The Secret Art of Upholstery traces pieces of furniture and their inner details and illustrates why upholstery is a constant constituent of cultural and social history. From the Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Classicism, Historicism, and Art Nouveau to designs by Arne Jacobsen and Alvar Aalto, the history of upholstered furniture is traced up to the present day. It also includes a closer examination of the corresponding tools, textiles, braiding, tassels, and cushions. All this accumulated knowledge is summarized at the end in an extensive glossary for reference.‎

‎Hardcover, 208 pagina's, NL, 255 x 255 x 22 mm, stofomslag , boek is in Prima staat, met talrijke illustraties in kleur. ISBN 9789020928020. Opendeur in de mooiste huizen van Brussel: van huizen van kunstenaars, collectioneurs, burgers en edellieden tot ateliers van decorateurs en de mooiste eethuizen van de stad Op het kruispunt van Noord- en Zuid-Europa is Brussel een Mekka voor liefhebbers van oude en moderne architectuur. Geen andere Europese stad toont zoveel bouwstijlen in haar straten. Eén stadswijk volstaat om de vormentaal van Mackintosh, De Stijl, het Bauhaus en Le Corbusier te herontdekken. Vooral de art nouveau ontpopte zich op het einde van de 19de eeuw tot een internationaal gewaardeerde stijl. In Brussel wordt er goed geleefd. Het hart van Europa staat vol riante woningen met een onwaarschijnlijke rijkdom aan interieurs. Moeiteloos stappen we van de voluptueuze barok in oude herenhuizen naar de uitgepuurde functionaliteit van enkele kunstgaleries. We bezoeken huizen van kunstenaars, collectioneurs, burgers en edellieden. Ateliers van decorateurs en de mooiste eethuizen van de stad worden eveneens bezocht. We worden gastvrij onthaald in de eerder artistieke wijken en in de meer traditionele, deftige buurten. Voor het eerst stelt dit boek deze gebouwen open voor een groot publiek.‎

‎LE CORBUSIER et la lampe Gras - and the Gras Lamp ENG / FR‎

‎HB, 270 x 210 mm, 124 p, 80 Kleurenillustraties E/ F edition. ISBN 9782915542707. À vrai dire, l'art décoratif, c'est de l'outillage, du bel outillage », Le Corbusier, L'Art décoratif d'aujourd'hui. Créée en 1921, la lampe Gras tient une place inédite dans l'histoire du luminaire. D'une conception révolutionnaire et d'une grande sobriété, elle a vocation à satisfaire aussi bien le monde de l'industrie que le secteur tertiaire alors en plein essor. Le jeune Le Corbusier, passionné par la problématique de la lumière, l'adopte et se l'approprie dès le début des années 20. D'une fonctionnalité remarquable, cette lampe répond aussi parfaitement à son besoin de rupture avec la décoration et l'ornement, ce qui amènera l'architecte à l'intégrer dans son atelier de la rue de Sèvres à Paris comme dans son domicile, où elle sert aussi bien à éclairer ses tables de travail que les plateaux de tables de salle à manger.‎
