Interior Design heute, das ist die Kreation von unterschiedlichsten Rдumen, die mit allen Sinnen erlebbar sind. Die originelle Kombination der Gestaltungselemente Farbe, Textil, Glas und Licht erzeugt spannende Raumakzente, schafft Atmosphдre von beruhigender bis eleganter Ausstrahlung und zaubert Bewegung in Wohnlandschaften und Arbeitswelten. So wird etwa die besondere Wirkung von Licht, seine Brechung und Bьndelung, Absorption und Reflektion, Farbe und Rhythmik gerade in der Verbindung mit Glas effektvoll manifest. Der vorliegende Bildband prдsentiert in opulenter Bebilderung eine einzigartige Auswahl von ьber 60 bemerkenswert gestalteten Innenrдumen — vom privaten Wohnhaus ьber die kleinere Gewerbenutzung bis hin zum groЯen цffentlichen Gebдude. Architekten, Innenarchitekten und Kьnstler zeigen, wie sie durch das innovative Zusammenspiel der Materialien den Charakter eines Raumes entscheidend prдgen. Die Prдsentation der Projekte versteht sich daher als Inspirations- und Informationsquelle, die dem Leser auf eindrucksvolle Weise den sinnlichen Reichtum der sich цffnenden Rдume nahe bringt.

Inside: Interiors of Concrete Stone Wood
|
Thames and Hudson

Автор: Sibylle Kramer Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2007 |
PDF, 182 страницы, 5.46 МБ
|
The interior design of recent years stands out above all for its original use of materials.Classic building materials, such as concrete, stone and wood, are now being employed in a variety of new ways. Unusual design opportunities open up through, for example, the experimental use of concrete, proving that this essentially hard material can produce surprisingly soft forms, warm colours and a velvety touch. This illustrated volume presents an inspiring selection of over 6o designed interiors created by renowned architects.With some of the featured projects, the particular spatial impact stems from a reduction to a single monolithic piece, while with others surprising results emerge from the interplay of materials, giving rise to distinctive and dramatic spaces.

Instant Light: Tarkovsky Polaroids
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Andrey A. Tarkovsky Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2006 |
PDF, 136 страниц, 4.08 МБ
|
A beautiful, elegiac collection of sixty polaroid photographs by the late, great Soviet film director, Andrei Tarkovsky Composed of sixty luminous polaroids taken by Andrey Tarkovsky in Russia and Italy between 1979 and 1984, this beautifully produced series of cameos from the director’s life reveals him to be a master of the still as much as of the moving image. The photos in the first section, taken in Russia, have the radiant melancholy of lengthening shadows and trees looming through misty dawns near Tarkovsky’s country dacha, together with portraits of his wife, son and dog, loaded with nostalgia by quotations from his later diaries. Those taken in Italy portray exquisite still lifes and glimmering ruins. The book concludes with photographs from Tarkovsky’s personal collection. Tarkovsky is here revealed as realizing the utmost potential of a fleeting, disposable medium: his images seem to capture eternity in a moment.

The Jeweled Garden
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Suzanne Tennenbaum Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2006 |
PDF, 216 страниц, 6.48 МБ
|
'The Jeweled Garden' traces the inspiration and evolution of two centuries of garden-inspired jewelry. The great 19th-century French jewelers, Boucheron, Chaumet, and later Lalique, excelled in adapting flowers, trees, and fruits into wonderfully imaginative – and highly collectible – bracelets, brooches and necklaces. The legendary 20th-century firms Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari and Belperron also created memorable jewels emulating nature, as did American jewelers such as Seaman Schepps, Oscar Heyman & Brothers, David Webb and Verdura. Their ingenuity has in turn inspired the designs of our own time, including Mughal-influenced pieces by Joel Arthur Rosenthal, Stefan Hemmerle’s playful ferns and mushrooms, and Jacqueline Karachi-Langane’s cascading orchid necklace for Cartier. The 375 stunning illustrations make this a collector's piece in itself.

Автор: James Bentley Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2007 |
PDF, 208 страниц, 6.24 МБ

This is a spectacular celebration of England’s picture perfect villages, grouped by area and by county. Clustered around the parish church and green, or winding along an eccentrically curving street, villages are the very embodiment of Englishness. The village inn and the local farm, great houses, cottages and beautiful country gardens speak of a way of life which has developed slowly since Anglo-Saxon times. Time spent in England’s idyllic villages offers a revitalizing glimpse of a more tranquil existence. The richness and diversity of the English village are recorded in this book in absorbing commentary and magnificent photography by James Bentley and Hugh Palmer.

Pierre Cardin Evolution

«Pierre Cardin, the inventor of «prêt-à-porter» whose graphically iconic initials personify his signature style, is best known for fashion and accessory design. However, he launched a unique furniture line during the 1970s that transposed his sculptural approach to fashion into furniture design: futuristic forms combined with traditional lacquer and cabinetmaking techniques and revolutionary space-age designs featured metal and plastics. Artistic director and catalyst, he challenged artists such as Serge Manzon, Christian Adam, Maria Pergay, Giacomo Passera, Prevost, and Pacos to renew contemporary French furniture design. Archival documents and newl commissioned photography include rare designs produced in his Paris workshops or by Japanese firm Yamada Shomei, such as his Space line that is the avant-garde symbol of this emperor of 1970s style. Cardin actively participated in this timely publication aimed at the burgeoning market for 1970s design.»

Автор: Ingrid Thomas Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2008 |
PDF, 256 страниц, 7.68 МБ

This is the most comprehensive and inspirational volume ever published on the extraordinary world of shells. Shells have been put to an amazing array of uses – as decoration, tools, medicines and musical instruments. For nearly four millennia, millions of them were used acros the world as currency. Shells have been worn as amulets to bring fertility, good fortune or protection from the evil eye. Above all, the beauty of shells has fired the imaginations of artists and craftsmen, and their work forms the lavish heart of this book, from the simplest beads to designs in gold and precious stones, silverware, ceramics, glass, textiles, furniture and fashion. Shells encrusted the garden grottos and pavilions of the 17th and 18th centuries, and in the 20th century influenced the forms of landmark modernist and post-modernist buildings. Some shells were so coveted that specimens could raise staggering sums at auction. Ingrid Thomas explores this history of shell collecting, and explains how shells can be collected responsibly today without harming our marine environments. Includes a worldwide directory of shell collections and grottos and a photographic glossary of shells,
