‎Paris, Editions de l'Amateur, 2007 Relie sous jaquette, 275pp., 24.5x32.5cm., nombr. ills. en couleur, comme neuf. ISBN 9782859172558.‎

‎Le style Art Deco, extraordinaire foisonnement d'idees et d'audaces, a succede aux floraisons lyriques qui, sous le nom d'Art Nouveau ou encore de Modern Style, ont marque le passage du XIXe siecle au XXe siecle. Sans presumer de l'avenir, on peut dire qu'il constitue la derniere expression vraiment originale de l'art francais avant l'eclectisme et l'internationalisation - on dirait aujourd'hui la mondialisation - de la seconde moitie du siecle. Cette nouvelle version du Mobilier Art Deco - publie pour la premiere fois en 1981 - reprend l'essentiel des textes des editions precedentes, y compris le chapitre sur les paquebots ajoute en 1990. Toutefois, nombre de notices ont ete completees. L'illustration a fait l'objet d'une reactualisation grace a l'apport de photographies en couleurs.‎

‎Fabio Novembre.‎

‎Novembre a Milano.‎

‎USA and Canada, 24 ORE Cultura, Hardcover, 136pp., 28.5x24cm., 115 color ills., new. ISBN 9788861161337.‎

‎Fabio Novembre is a renowned architect and designer with a unique design flair. Novembre's notoriously eccentric personality is reflected in his works, which are inspired by baroque and are designed 'for pleasure and beauty.' Novembre's architectural career first took off whilst reading Film Studies in New York, a qualification he had to abandon in favour of his new vocation. The idea that he could turn his forsaken cinematic ideas into architectural concepts has influenced his vision ever since, resulting in a rejection of traditionally accepted styles and an effort to further develop his unique aesthetic with each assignment. This title showcases Novembre's oeuvre within a beautiful Italian-made book that is an object of design in itself. Fabio Novembre is an incredibly successful architect and designer, featured on a regular basis in many architecture and design magazines. He worked as Creative Director of successful mosaic tile manufacturer Bisazza, making it a world leader during his time there.‎

‎Dirk Wynants. Designer. I've Always Been Attached to the Globe.‎

‎, Stichting Kunstboek BVBA, 2012 Hardback, 260x210mm, 160p, 100 colour illustrations, English edition. ISBN 9789058564085.‎

‎Dirk Wynants (? 1964) is de oprichter en eigenaar van het vernieuwende Belgische meubelmerk Extremis. Hij is tegelijk de belangrijkste ontwerper van het merk en de bedenker van het briljante branding concept "Tools for Togetherness". Het unieke succesverhaal van Extremis, dat op enkele jaren tijd een internationale reputatie verwierf als trendsetter op het gebied van buitenmeubilair, is sterk gelinkt aan de bevlogen persoonlijkheid en veelzijdige talenten van deze ontwerper-ondernemer, die het klappen van de zweep al heel jong leerde als zoon van een meubelmaker-schrijnwerker. Meer dan wie ook laat hij zich inspireren door een geengageerde visie op design. Hij heeft een duidelijke boodschap. Design is niet zomaar een kwestie van stijliconen of glamourdingen, maar veel meer van innovatieve oplossingen die van de wereld hopelijk een betere plek kunnen maken, vandaar de titel Design Works? Overtuigd maar ook altijd met de moed om vraagtekens te plaatsen. Sinds 2007 bestaat Dirk Wynants Design Works of (dw)2 autonoom en staat het naast Extremis ook open voor externe ontwerpopdrachten. Dirk Wynants sleepte sinds de start van Extremis in 1994 talloze internationale onderscheidingen in de wacht. Van de meest prestigieuze designerkenningen tot awards voor design management, algemeen management en export (waaronder Henry van de Velde Awards, Interior Innovation Award, (IMM Koln), Red Dot Award, International Excellence Design Award). As a son of a cabinet maker, Dirk Wynants (? 1964), was brought up with a nose for good design and a healthy dose of entrepreneurship. He studied interior and furniture design at Sint-Lucas School for Architecture in Ghent (Belgium) and was involved in the distribution of international design brands, until he established Extremis (1994), a label and brand for his own designs. Extremis' outdoor furniture designs quickly grew into an international standard of excellence. Not only the design collection itself has been applauded and awarded many times (with several Henry van de Velde Awards, Interior Innovation Award, (IMM Koln 2005), Red Dot Award 2005, International Excellence Design Award 2007, ao.), the expertise of Extremis in the field of design management, general management and export was praised just as well. In 2007 the creative unit of Extremis continued under the name Dirk Wynants Design Works = (dw)?, to enable the company to take on external design tasks. Dirk Wynants is still managing director and main designer of Extremis, but is also working closely together with other internationally renowned designers.‎

‎Paris, Flammarion, 2007 Hardcover with dustjacket, 253pp., 22.5x30.5cm., lavishly illustr. in col., new! ENGLISH TEXT. ISBN 9782080305350.‎

‎Axel Vervoordt began purchasing antiques in his teens and has steadily built a vast collection of exquisite objects from around the world. He is renowned for his prestigious exhibitions at major world antique fairs, including the New York Design Fair and TEFAF Maastricht. His interior designs, in both traditional and modern settings around the world, combine antiques from all continents with a Zen sensuality, and they blend the old with the new to create harmonious interiors. His unusual pairings may include Chinese porcelain with English furniture or a Roman relic alongside a 1930s Flemish painting. The extent of Vervoordt?s talent is revealed in the twenty-three homes in Europe and the United States presented here through Christian Sarramon?s photographs. The variety of styles reflects Vervoordt?s eclecticism, and his authentic and welcoming interiors are inspirational treasure troves. From the rustic charm of a Swiss chalet to the classic finesse of a Bordeaux ch teau to the modern allure of a Miami mansion, Vervoordt?s creations are perfectly in tune with the character and history of each space.‎

‎London, V and A Publications, 1999 Softcover, 144pp., 21x27cm., ills. in col. and b/w., as new. ISBN 9781851772896.‎

‎A survey of Victorian style and design, covering key movements and featuring seminal work by key designers - from Morris and de Morgan to Voysey and Mackintosh. The Victorian period (from 1837 to 1901) produced a wealth of innovative design. It was characterised by diversity and conflicting desires for tradition and progress which gave rise to a rich variety of styles such as revivals of Gothic and Rococo, a new fascination with the East in Japonisme and the appearance of Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts Movement. Elaborate designs for furniture by Pugin and Burges, or ceramics and silver by Mackintosh and Knox, are seen alongside actual pieces as they were eventually created, while a range of room designs reflect changing tastes in form and colour and different lifestyles.‎

‎The appearance of the Rorstrand porcelain factory from Stockholm at the 1900 world exhibition in Paris was brilliant: the world had never seen such expert handling of porcelain mass ? some in the form of waferthin petals ? and an underglaze colour palette with such subtle nuances. The critics were full of praise and the economic success was soon to follow. The foundation for this laid in the cooperation between Rorstrand and the painter Alf Wallander, who had worked for the manufacturer from 1894/1895. By 1896 Rorstrand had his first big success with the porcelain designed by Wallander at exhibitions in Stockholm, Malmo and Gothenburg. Its artistic rise finally began in 1897 with the Art and Industry Exposition in Stockholm and found its crowning moment in Paris, the International Exhibition of Modern Art in Turin in 1902 and the World Exhibition in St. Louis in 1904. Rorstrand could now compete on an international level alongside the two significant Danish manufacturers Royal Copenhagen and Bing‎

‎Proceeding from an international perspective and various starting points, Essays on Finnish Modernism approaches phenomena in Finnish architecture and design that entail the problematic of modernism. The themes of the book are the main elements of modernism, such as the emergence and development of mass production, changes in consumer habits, improvements to the quality of life and emphasis in design on the problems of increased equality. Although modernism was introduced into Finland around the turn of the 1920s and 1930s, modern design did not become part of the lives of ordinary consumers until the 1950s, as the Secon Wold War halted the developments that had begun in the 1930s. Modernism is of topical interest. In 2009, the anniversary of the bauhaus School was celebrated in Germany. Founded by the architect Walter Gropius in Weimar in 1919, the Bauhaus has remained, despite its small scope and brief duration, a symbol of modernism and its most prominet torchbearer.‎

‎Danny Venlet. Interior Architect.‎

‎, Stichting Kunstboek, Hardcover, 26 x 21 cm, 160 p., 300 illustraties, Engels, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9789058563026.‎

‎Danny Venlet (? 1958, Victoria, Australia) is een van ?s werelds beste en meest veelbelovende designers; toch is zijn werk een goed bewaard geheim in de designwereld. Dit is enerzijds te wijten aan het feit dat Venlet in twee verschillende werelden (Australie en Belgie) gewerkt en geleefd heeft, maar is anderzijds ook te verklaren door de essentie van zijn persoonlijkheid en werk ? bescheiden, geneigd tot understatements, en relaxed. Hoewel Venlet algemeen beschouwd wordt als de uitvinder van een ?afgerond?, eerder ?organisch? en ?menselijk? minimalisme, beperkt hij zich als designer en interieurarchitect niet tot een enkele stijl. Een allesomvattend overzicht van een twintigjarige loopbaan, die niet alleen een revolutie veroorzaakte in de wereld van kantoor-, buiten- en residentiele meubels (met bekroonde creaties zoals de ?Easy Rider? en de ?Viteo? douche), maar tevens ook een totaal nieuw concept van interieurarchitectuur introduceerde, waarin objecten en gebruikers niet langer gedomineerd worden door de ruimte, maar vice versa.‎

‎, Stichting Kunstboek, Hardcover, 23 x 23 cm, 156 p., 250 illustraties, tweetalig Nederlands/Engels, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9789058562357.‎

‎Het surrealisme mag dan vooral gekend zijn als stroming binnen de literatuur en schone kunsten, toch is de invloed van deze 20e-eeuwse kunstrichting op andere domeinen niet te onderschatten. Ook de wereld van de vormgeving en het hedendaagse design ontsnapt niet aan een gezonde portie surreele humor. Forms with a smile bundelt ontwerpen en objecten van moderne surrealisten en toont aan dat niets is wat het lijkt. Harige tapijten, lampen in de vorm van een melkfles, usb-sticks gesneden uit houten takken of zetels gemaakt uit pluchen troeteldieren. Is het puur humor? Of is het een prikkelend statement verpakt in een aanstekelijke glimlach? Net zoals het surrealisme vertelt design soms meer dan we denken. Gewapend met subtiele ironie trekken deze nieuwe surrealisten ten strijde in een wereld waar een zekere serieux regeert.‎

Sur la rive gauche, le palais d'Eugene de Beauharnais, residence des ambassadeurs d'Allemagne, conserve intact, depuis Josephine, le faste du style Empire. De superbes photographies, specialement realisees pour ce livre, nous devoilent les secrets de ces tresors artistiques et architecturaux insoupconnes. Inedit, cet ouvrage divulgue l'intimite de lieux exceptionnels et rend hommage aux representations etrangeres qui s'emploient a redonner vie a ce precieux patrimoine commun.

‎Decorators of the 1960s and 1970s / Les Decorateur des Annees 60s-70s‎

‎, Norma Editions , 2016 Hardback, 305x230mm, 336p, 380 bw and col. illustrations english edition. ISBN 9782915542837.‎

‎the 60s and 1970s marked a sharp turning point in the history of decoration and furniture. Until that point, the world was confined to national and elitist forms of expression. At the beginning of the 1960s, the sector took its inspiration from Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Italian and French decoration. Genres were combined in a frenzied desire to live in symbiosis with one's time. The progress of technology strengthened the conviction that the individual had unlimited freedom and aroused the desire to inhabit in a new manner. Forms became rounder, furniture was in sync with a warm, playful, and anticonformist universe. Colours and decorative motifs took on the brilliance and fantasies of Pop Art and psychedelia. The living environment was transformed into a waking dream in which luxurious furniture in original materials and surprising objects were mixed, associated, for the first time, with early furniture. The end of the 1970s marked the advent of a period in which beauty and classic elegance gave way to a host of expressions that were unclassifiable and rejected any hierarchy. The postmodern period had arrived. Composed of a long introduction that provides a synoptic view and 32 monographs that describe its many faces, this book invites the reader to discover an exceptionally creative period and revels through an abundant iconography. Les annees 60 et 70 sont indissociables dans l'histoire de la decoration et du mobilier. Elles marquent un tournant radical dans un monde jusqu'alors confine a des expressions nationales et elitistes. Tout eclate au debut des annees 60. La mode est a la fois d'inspiration anglosaxonne, scandinave, italienne et francaise. Les genres se melangent dans un desir effrene de vivre en symbiose avec son temps. Les progres de la technologie accreditent la conviction d'une liberte conquerante de l'individu et suscitent des desirs inedits d'une nouvelle maniere d'habiter, fut-ce dans des cellules de science-fiction. Les formes s'arrondissent, les sieges deviennent des tapis-sculptures qui permettent de se lover dans des univers chaleureux, ludiques et anticonformistes. Les couleurs et les motifs decoratifs epousent l'eclat et les delires du Pop' Art et du psychedelisme. L'espace d'habitation se transforme en reve eveille ou se melent un mobilier luxueux dans des materiaux inedits et des objets surprenants de toutes origines, associes, fait nouveau, a des meubles anciens. La fin des annees 70 marque l'avenement d'une epoque ou la beaute et l'elegance classique cedent le pas a une multitude d'expressions qui echappent a tout classement et a toute hierarchie. L'heure du post-modernisme a sonne. Compose d'une longue introduction qui en donne une vision synoptique et de trente-deux monographies qui decrivent ses multiples visages, ce livre rend intelligible une periode exceptionnellement creative et revele a travers une abondante iconographie, souvent inedite, sa formidable richesse esthetique. Une iconographie mise a jour, une nouvelle jaquette et trois nouveaux decorateurs viennent enrichir cette nouvelle edition.‎

‎, Pandora , 2017 Hardback, 310x240mm, 248p, throughout colour illustrations, English edition . ISBN 9789053254264.‎

‎Deze designer is bij het grote publiek bekend van het VRT-programma De Bedenkers. Hij is de man achter het design van de Brusselse metro, verschillende bussen, de waterkranen van Sipwell,? Met andere woorden: iedereen komt bijna dagelijks met zijn ontwerpen in aanraking zonder het goed en wel te beseffen. De foto op de cover is trouwens van Vanfleteren. Designed by Axel Enthoven. Day after day he proves that elegance still exists today. He demonstrates that statements, sloganesque formulations, cutting corners, taking an obtuse attitude to people are not his thing. That kindness is not synonymous with weakness. That taking the time to think things through properly should not be exceptional. Taking responsibility regarding the impact of actions and words is not a rare occurrence. Striving after timelessness and sustainability are given a lasting interpretation. For him, combining aesthetics and functionality is a matter of course. Thanks to Axel Enthoven we are reminded that things can be different. And how important design is.‎

‎Expo: 29/4/2006 - 25/6/2006 -previously announced-, Designmuseum, Gent Dit boek overbrugt een periode van meer dan 25 jaar en toont aan hoe de rol van product design geevolueerd is doorheen het werk van Enthoven Associates, een design consultancy uit Antwerpen (B). De basis van het boek is de beschrijving van vijf periodes aan de hand van visueel materiaal over de producten die ontwikkeld werden in die periode en van achtergrondverhalen van bevoorrechte waarnemers. Het toont ook hoe de diensten van design consultants veranderd zijn, net zoals design zelf: van de visie van een individuele ontwerper tot de gecombineerde deskundigheid van de leden van een team, van een eerder kunstzinnige blik op producten uit het dagelijkse leven tot een veel complexere toegevoegde waarde die kunst met technologie combineert of ethische waarden met marketing concepten. De laatste periode in het boek is de toekomst. Een concept rond de keuken van de toekomst, uitgevoerd in Living Tomorrow Amsterdam, en een onderzoeksproject rond 'ouder worden' illustreren de visie van Enthoven Associates op de rol van design voor het volgende decennium. This special book tides over a period of thirty years and show how the role of product design has evolved through the work of Enthoven Associates, an internationally operating design consultancy in Antwerp, led by Alain Denis, Axel Enthoven and Jean-Pierre Geelen. The services of design consultants have thoroughly changed, and the same goes for design itself: from the vision of an individual designer to the combined expertise of the members of a team, from a more artistic view on products from the daily life to a much more complex added value that combines art with technology or ethical values with marketing concepts. All these things are exemplified by a historical overview and dozens of detailed cases like the Magiq bus, the Brussels tram, the Genio bed, Living Tomorrow, the Ethnicraft chair, products for Tupperware‎

‎In this first monographic work dedicated to the work of Pol Quadens, sketches, drawings, photographs and personal testimonials come together to create a picture of the Belgian designer s career. This luxuriously illustrated volume features Quadens insights on aesthetics, philosophy, technology and design, and displays how his design principles have led to the development of each one of his creations. The reader is invited into the creative process, from inspiration to execution, and passing through technological exploration, as Quadens questions the boundaries between art and functionality. From the lightest chair in the world (1995), through the heel-less shoe (2000), to the purely sculptural works Birds and Vertigo (2013), Quadens career has developed into an art that defies material constraints in the pursuit of creating objects that are sometimes useful, but always beautiful."‎

‎Pieter Bruegel de Oude (ca. 1525 - 1569) is vandaag vooral bekend om zijn voorstellingen van het boerenleven en wintertaferelen. Hiervan bezitten de Koninklijke Musea voor Schone Kunsten van Belgie twee uitzonderlijke voorbeelden, het Winterlandschap met schaatsers en vogelknip (1565) en de Volkstelling te Bethlehem (1566). Het Winterlandschap met schaatsers en vogelknip is Bruegels meest gekopieerde werk; het werd nageschilderd door zijn zonen Pieter de Jonge en Jan de Oude en inspireerde kunstenaars tot aan het einde van 17de eeuw. Dit boek presenteert diepgaand onderzoek en nieuwe inzichten over de wintertaferelen van Pieter Bruegel de Oude, met focus op de panelen in de KMSKB. Innovatieve methodologieen en interdisciplinair onderzoek werpen nieuw licht op deze meesterwerken uit de Renaissance, in het bijzonder op de relatie van de schilder en zijn imaginaire werken tot de historische realiteit. Na een inleiding over het beeld van Bruegel en zijn wintertaferelen doorheen de geschiedenis, beschouwen de essays onder meer de precaire situatie van de lokale bevolking tijdens de winter en de relatie van Bruegel en zijn opdrachtgevers tot de centrale overheid. Dit leidt tot een heel nieuwe interpretatie van de Volkstelling te Bethlehem, en verduidelijkt Bruegels rol als schilder van de stedelijke elite. Rijkelijk geillustreerd, is deze publicatie zowel een voorstelling van de meest recente onderzoeksresultaten als een eerbetoon aan deze wereldberoemde werken. Tine Luk Meganck is onderzoeker en Sabine van Sprang is conservator, beiden aan de Koninklijke Musea voor Schone Kunsten van Belgie.‎

‎, ludion, 2018 Hardcover with dusjacket, HB, 295 x 235 mm, 512 p, throughout colour illustrations.ENG / NL edition. ISBN 9789491819780.‎

‎Designer, kunstenaar en architect Frans Van Praet (1937) is vooral bekend om de interieurinrichting van het Belgisch Paviljoen op de wereldtentoonstelling in Sevilla (1992) en zijn iconische Sevillazitje. Dit lijvige boek, waarmee Van Praet zijn tachtigste verjaardag viert, bewijst nochtans dat zijn oeuvre heel wat rijker en verscheidener is dan wat het grote publiek van hem kent. Frans Van Praet werd geboren in 1937 in Sint-Amands aan de Schelde. Als jonge man vertoeft hij in het kunstenaarsmilieu rond Galerie De Zwarte Panter. Het is in deze context dat men zijn beeldend werk moet plaatsen: een Vlaams surrealisme, dat al woordspelend knipoogt met beelden. In zijn realisaties komt een boeiende ambiguiteit naar voren: verhalende exuberantie gaat hand in hand met de minder-is-meer-soberheid van het minimalisme. Deze beperking waarin men de meester herkent, is de hoofdlijn die Van Praet volgt wanneer hij gebruiksvoorwerpen ontwerpt. Zo mogelijk bepaalt hij ook graag mee de ruimte waarin de objecten zullen functioneren. Zijn creaties vormen een synthese van het ongewoon utilitaire en het potentieel van het materiaal. Hout is zijn lievelingsmateriaal. Bij doorgezaagd, eeuwenoud hout ziet men de jaarringen - de geschiedenis van het groeiproces‎
