A humorous tribute to Matteo Thun, one of Italy's most distinguished designers and architects, and his work. In the summer of 2009, Swiss artist Walter Pfeiffer made an extensive trip from Zurich to the Italian island of Capri, taking photographs of some fifty of Thun's design objects en route. Yet, rather than doing a mere documentation of these items, Pfeiffer created highly lively "tableaux vivants." The artist was accompanied on his journey by Thun's two then teenage sons, who thus form the main visual narrative of the book and appear in many pictures together with their father's creations. A brief introduction by Matteo Thun's wife Susanne and an index of the depicted design gems round out this extraordinary and entertaining visual travelogue.
In the iF ranking, Loewe is among the top 10 German companies awarded for exceptional design performances. This is a good reason to take a close look at the design history of the company on the occasion of its 100-year anniversary. The design historian Kilian Steiner distinguishes three historical phases: The first phase (1923 to 1945) marks the build-up and destruction of the Loewe brand. In the second phase (1945 to 1985), the focus was on the rebuilding of Loewe and overcoming numerous changes. The third period from 1985 onwards saw the rise of Loewe to an internationally renowned design brand. For the first time, the creative minds in product and communication design who contributed to the development of the brand are named and previously un-known details of the Loewe corporate history are revealed.From its foundation in 1923 to the invention of the electronic television in 1931, Loewe has evolved into a globally operating design brand. A unique combination of German engineering, excellence, exclusive design and sustainability have shaped the brand culture.
In his ongoing research into the effects of windows and how the different usages influence their design, the Japanese architect Yoshiharu Tsukamoto has travelled to Scandinavia and Finland.The result is this book, The Nordic Window – the first ever publication on the topic. Here, Tsukamoto and his students at the Tokyo Institute of Technology analyse a long list of canonical projects from the Nordic architectural tradition through beautiful photographs and elaborate drawings. His approach emphasises both the physical elements of the window, but also the more ephemeral aspects such as behaviour and atmosphere.This book is a study into how the design of windows is shaped by different cultures and social contexts. The fascination and tenderness shines through the text, while it presents a unique perspective on the architectural tradition that we are so familiar with. Through this exquisite example of Japanese craftsmanship, we are invited to see the Nordic architecture through the eyes of an acclaimed Japanese architect.Yoshiharu Tsukamoto is one of the founding member of the acclaimed Japanese architecture studio Atelier Bow-Wow and a lecturer at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Together with his studio, he has previous published the books Pet Architecture Guide Book and Made in Tokyo.

Bayern steht für: Lederhosen und Dirndl, Bier, Schweinshaxen, Knödel, Brezeln und Weißwürste, Oktoberfest, FC Bayern München, BMW, Schloss Neuschwanstein (Vorlage des Disney-Logos), Airbus und MTU (die meisten deutschen Waffenexporte kommen aus Bayern), das Deutsche Museum, Die Neue Sammlung, Bayrische Oper, Karl Valentin, Lothar Matthäus (»I hope we have a little bit lucky«) ... Stop. Bei Bayern kann die Liste der Klischees unendlich weitergeführt werden. Noch bis in die 1950er Jahre galt Bayern für viele als Agrarland - ein Bild, das schon damals nur für eine Seite des Freistaates stand. Die Olympischen Spiele in München präsentierten 1972 der Welt eine zivil geprägte Bundesrepublik, die das trübe Grau der Nachkriegsjahre abgelegt hatte und offen nach vorne blickte. Die »Weltstadt mit Herz« wurde ausgerufen. Mit Hilfe der Designagentur bayern design hat Slanted Designerinnen, Künstlerinnen, Fotografen, Illustratorinnen und Handwerker ausfindig gemacht - alles Menschen, die ihre Region lieben (fast ein Drittel der bayerischen Bevölkerung verbringt ihren Urlaub am liebsten im eigenen Bundesland) und mit Leidenschaft bei der Sache sind. Dieser Band der Slanted Special Edition Bavaria zeigt Bayerns Reichtum an Kreativität, Vielfalt und Intelligenz.
Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht einen neuen Freiheitsgrad zur Beeinflussung der Reibung, indem ein adaptiver Reibbelag entwickelt wird, dessen Reibung aktiv durch den Einsatz von den Piezoaktoren beeinflusst wird, und zwar primär durch Änderung bzw. Kombination verschiedener Materialpaarungen im Betrieb. Ein tribologisch gezielt beeinflussbares Reibsystem ermöglicht für einen breiteren Anwendungsbereich einen Betrieb mit geringer Reibleistung und geringem Verschleiß, indem die tribologischen Eigenschaften bzw. die Reibung bei Veränderungen der Betriebsbedingungen (z.B. Gleitgeschwindigkeit, Temperatur) durch eine Regelung angepasst werden. Bei trockenlaufenden Tribosystemen tritt für einige Reibmaterialien bei konstanter Normalkraft mit zunehmender Gleitgeschwindigkeit ein Abfall des Reibwertes auf. Dieser Abfall ist häufig unerwünscht, weil er beispielweise zu Reibschwingungen des Gesamtsystems oder zur Verringerung der Effektivität in Bremsen oder Kupplungen führen kann. Ein wesentliches Motiv dieses Vorhabens ist das Bestreben, den Reibwert des trockenlaufenden Reibbelages mit zunehmender Gleitgeschwindigkeit konstant zu halten oder ansteigen zu lassen, indem verschiedene unterschiedliche Reibmaterialien einzeln oder zusammen in Kontakt mit dem Gegenkörper gebracht werden. Reibbeläge mit adaptiven Komponenten, deren Eigenschaften gezielt verändert werden können, eröffnen ein breites Anwendungsspektrum in diversen Bereichen des Maschinenbaus.

A large-format book that uncovers the secrets behind Nendo's unique creative process.He named his firm ?Nendo', the Japanese word for modelling clay; he uses manga-like sketches to illustrate his design concepts; and he creates some of the most imaginative furniture in the world: he is Oki Sato, one of Japan's most prolific designers. At any given moment, he has hundreds of projects in the works - architecture, interiors, furniture, tableware, and more. ?There is nothing I would not design,' says Sato.Sato renders his designs with remarkable conceptual clarity. At the outset, he allows his imagination to run wild and then documents his idea with a simple black line drawing - be it a bathroom basin defined by a single, ceramic swirl or a pair of wooden chopsticks that twist together to become one. These 2D images are converted into minimal 3D shapes described with clean outlines and a largely monochrome palette. Like a traditional Japanese ink painting, which constructs an image with just a few brush strokes, Sato extracts the unnecessary and eliminates distraction. Featuring Sato's original sketches, full-scale product images and explanatory texts, Project Nendo uncovers and unpicks the designer's unique creative process, guiding the reader step-by-step through his innovative and playful world to reveal the secrets behind fifty of his inimitable works.

You've seen their work-but have you seen them? Black designers have been working in every major industry but, for the past decades, have not been given the spotlight anywhere near to the extent of their white counterparts. This vibrant and wide-ranging book, full of photographs and illustrations, aims to correct that oversight, bringing a century of Black designers and their work into focus. Organized into three sections focusing on Fashion, Architecture and Graphic Design, Prempeh uses the pioneering work of key figures from the twentieth and twenty-first century to explore important aspects of how Black design has been perceived within culture and society. From the necessity of the side-hustle, to interrogating the value placed on Black design, from reclaiming traditions, to exploring how design can be a form of protest, this book brings to the fore the stories of figures such as Ann Lowe, Dapper Dan, Norma Sklarek, Francis Kéré, Emory Douglas and Liz Montague to unpick what it means to be a Black designer.

Lighting, whether for domestic use or for the grander areas of public or private spaces of ministerial buildings or post offices, of theatres or hotels, represents an important constituent of Murano glass production. The Venini firm distinguished itself with significant results also in this sector, particularly because of its constant ability to modernise and its characteristic openness to the world of design, aspects which made it a reference point for the foremost national and international architects. This volume, which covers a period from 1921 to 1985, illustrates the work of the glassworks in the area of lighting, on the larger or smaller scale, giving an overview of the most significant projects. More than five hundred cards, accompanied by a considerable body of hitherto mostly unpublished iconographic illustrations, document an unremitting activity made up of numerous projects of historical and cultural importance, among which those carried out in collaboration with Angiolo Mazzoni in the 1930s, the production of the velarium of Palazzo Grassi in Venice in 1951, the large installation by Carlo Scarpa for Italia 61 in Turin, the Fulda theatre in Germany in 1978 etc. A careful selection of works tells of the transformation of Venini lamps, their form and their material: from the elegant reworking of the traditional chandelier with arms to the new fixtures with modular elements, from Vittorio Zecchin to Carlo Scarpa, from Massimo Vignelli a Ludovico Diaz de Santillana. The volume, with material coming from the historic Venini archive and for the greater part unpublished previously, is also accompanied by a rich documentary apparatus made up of a substantial corpus of graphic illustrations (catalogue drawings, preparatory drawings for the Blue Catalogue and the pages of the Red Catalogue) for a total of more than four hundred images that contribute to telling the extraordinary story of the Venini company and light.
