About the Author:

Founded in 2008, Fashionary is the best-selling fashion sketchbook, a practical tool for professionals who are working at all levels of the fashion industry. The name originated from "Fashion + Dictionary + Diary".

The first illustrated monograph presenting the work of British designer Lee Broom, founder of the eponymous brand and celebrated for his stylish, contemporary take on classic design products.

The book explores the many influences and ideas behind Broom’s portfolio of more than 100 products as well as highlights the way in which he showcases his work through original and engaging installations, exhibitions, and films. Lee Broom furniture, lighting, and accessories, some of which is now held in the permanent collections of cultural institutions in London and New York, is at once familiar and yet feels new — a signature skill of reinterpretation and the mix of classicism and modernity.

The book is presented thematically in four chapters, each relating to a defining aspect of Broom’s design personality. “Art Form” explores Broom’s relationship with architecture and silhouette, as well as the way in which he works with form, balance, and symmetry. “History Repeats Itself” delves into Broom’s fascination with historical starting points and reinvention and how techniques of the past can inform the future. “Material Boy” focuses on Broom’s meticulous approach to the process of making, his clever use of materials, and the art of collaboration. Finally, “Drama of Design” is a study of Broom’s background in theater and fashion and how both have permeated his creative thinking and the way he presents his work as immersive experiences.

With special contributions by Christian Louboutin, Vivienne Westwood and Kelly Wearstler.

About the Author:

Becky Sunshine is a London-based writer, editor, and consultant specializing in design, interiors, and lifestyle. Among the publications she collaborates with are Observer Magazine, Sunday Times Style, Wallpaper*, Telegraph Magazine, Vogue Living, Elle Decoration, Condé Nast Traveler, Elle Decor, Interior Design, and House & Garden.

At a moment of unprecedented creativity in men’s fashion, and continuing reflections on gender, contemporary designers are questioning established forms, seeking to liberate wearers from traditional models of masculine dress.

This book combines fashion with artistic and broader cultural histories – looking at the designers, tailors and artists who have constructed and performed masculinity from the Renaissance to the present day. It traces connections across and beyond European menswear, celebrating both rich traditions and daring individualists.

Divided into three parts, Undressed reveals the role of the body and underwear in fashioning masculinities. Overdressed explores the power dynamics of sartorial bravado, while Redressed deconstructs a modern masculine uniform: the black suit.

Featuring a staggering range of cultural touchstones from Hercules to Virgil Abloh, Giovanni Battista Moroni to Jawaharlal Nehru, Yves Saint Laurent to Kehinde Wiley, Marcus Rashford, Marlene Dietrich and even Captain America, Fashioning Masculinities challenges our preconceptions about menswear, revealing the fascinating historical roots beneath the power, artistry and diversity of masculine attire and appearance today.

The newest book in bestselling author Christopher Hart's Figure It Out! series simplifies the basics of drawing people through essential tips and tricks. Geared toward both the general drawing audience and more seasoned artists, Figure It Out!: Simple Lessons, Quick Results offers the basic keys to drawing the human figure, broken down into straightforward steps that anyone can understand and attempt. This is the easy way to learn how to draw people, with no need for in-depth explanations on anatomy or musculature.

For example: most figure-drawing books, including previous books in the Figure It Out! series, teach how to draw the torso with a focus on the rib cage, collar bones, pectoral placement, etc. Simple Lessons, Quick Results takes a more straightforward approach by breaking the torso down into three simple, distinct areas that are easy to understand and draw for excellent results without the extra information. In another example, Chris focuses on drawing the natural curves of the body as opposed to drawing muscles, which would require much more time to explain and absorb. Many of the final drawings in the book are presented in full color and shown in basic clothing as well, making them more representative of real people one would see every day. Using the signature, simple instruction that Chris is known for, Figure It Out!: Simple Lessons, Quick Results is designed to solve common figure-drawing problems that aspiring artists can relate to.

With this book, anyone with even a passing interest in drawing will immediately grasp the basics of drawing people — and get the quick results to prove it!

A glorious selection of jewellery based on the human figure, all in the holdings of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris

Following on from Flora and Fauna, this is the third book in a series devoted to the splendid jewellery collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. The theme this time is the human figure. It begins in the Byzantine era and ranges through the medieval and Renaissance periods and beyond to the 19th century when Lalique, Fouquet and the Maison Vever produced pieces that were the embodiment of elegant sophistication, and into the 20th, when artists such as Picasso and Giacometti joined forces with jewelers like Jean Lurçat and Line Vautrin. Figures & Faces is packed with striking and witty works of art that will charm all lovers of jewellery.

Contents List:

• Introduction
• Two essays by Évelyne Possémé and Patrick Mauriès
• The jewellery

About the Authors:

Patrick Mauriès is a writer and publisher of many notable titles on fashion and design, including Jewelry by Chanel, A Cabinet of Rarities, The World According to Karl and Fashion Quotes to name a few, all published by Thames & Hudson.
Évelyne Possémé is chief curator at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.

In this luxurious cloth-bound hardcover with glossy slipcase, renowned botanical photographer Jonathan Singer presents his breathtaking images of the world's most notable bonsai.

In Fine Bonsai: Art & Nature, the finest extant achievements in the art of bonsai are seen together for the first time, through the lens of renowned botanical photographer Jonathan Singer. This magnificent volume is the result of an extensive photographic campaign, in the course of which Singer was granted unprecedented access to the most respected public and private collections in Japan and the United States, including the mecca of bonsai, the Omiya Bonsai Village of Saitama, Japan, where photography is normally prohibited. Three hundred stunning full-page images and four lavish gatefolds present bonsai of all types, from quiet representations of nature to bold sculptural forms. The horticultural and aesthetic characteristics of each bonsai are concisely and authoritatively described in the narrative captions by William Valavanis, head of the International Bonsai Arboretum in Rochester, New York. And because the container is considered an integral part of any bonsai — indeed, the literal meaning of “bonsai” is “tray plant” — the book also includes some twenty-five photographs of traditional bonsai containers, with descriptions. A further sequence of twenty-five photographs is devoted to the related art of suiseki, or miniature stone landscapes displayed in the same manner, and often alongside,
bonsai.

With his groundbreaking first book, Botanica Magnifica, Jonathan Singer established a new style of botanical photography, characterized by an exceptional clarity of detail and richness of color, as well as a painterly chiaroscuro. These qualities are just as evident in the present volume; Singer photographs each bonsai with an artist’s — one might even say a portraitist’s — eye. Whereas most books on bonsai aim to instruct readers on techniques of care and cultivation, Singer’s book takes the reader on a visual journey. His images encompass many different species, from azalea to red maple, as well as a variety of blossoms and fruits. Alluring and serene, Singer's photographs make the experience of leafing through Bonsai not unlike entering a real Japanese garden. Fine Bonsai: Art & Nature not only documents the masterpieces of an ancient horticultural art, but is a masterpiece in itself.

A portion of the proceeds of this book will benefit the Japanese Red Cross.

Jonathan Singer’s double-elephant folio of Botanica Magnifica is kept in the Cullman Rare Book Room at the Smithsonian Institution Libraries. Dr. Singer was named a Hasselblad Laureate Award winner based on his contribution to fine art photography and to “our perception and appreciation of the botanical world.”

Available again as of October 2019| Atmospherically illustrated tribute to the brilliant Danish designer and his own home, an icon of good taste

Birgit Lyngbye Pedersen was looking for the right sofa for a house from the fifties and discovered Finn Juhl (1912–1989), whose furniture is experiencing a renaissance in the wake of the retro wave. When Juhl’s house in Charlottenlund, which he designed and decorated in 1941–42, came up for sale, Pedersen purchased the building and all of its furnishings, presenting it immediately afterward to the adjacent Ordrupgaard Museum.

This monograph takes a look at Finn Juhl—alongside Hans J. Wegner and Arne Jacobsen one of the most important Danish Modernists—in an agreeably unpretentious way. Per H. Hansen, a renowned expert in Scandinavian furniture design, provides a humorous, extremely informative description of Juhl’s unconventional character and classic furniture—the Chieftain Chair, the Pelican Chair, or the Poet Sofa. Drawings, original photographs, images of the newly curated house (2008), and an amusing final chapter about his patrons round off this unusual volume.

Flexible packaging is a subdivision of the packaging industry. A number of associations have been founded in Europe to facilitate the industry's advancement, which shows the importance of flexible packaging.

Flexible packaging is defined as any packaging whose shape can be readily changed. It includes packaging made of plastic film, paper, aluminium foil, fabric, or a combination of these materials and has been widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industry.

This book invites expert engineers and designers to write about their experience and understanding of flexible packaging. Through an excellent showcase of design works, this book will lead you into the lesser-known world of flexible packaging.

Layout — an often misunderstood aspect of design. So often, as layout designers, we hear people telling us that layout is easy, just putting text and images on a page and moving it around to make it “nice”. However, the reality is that a book designer has to follow tonnes of design, typographical and composition rules. The process behind fine tuning these details is gruelling and tedious work.

We believe that a successful book layout design is not only about what designers should do — but also what designers should not do. It is about the thought processes behind these decisions, solving these problems with the turn of each page as well as balancing the harmony between text and images. And these points are just what Flipping Pages strives to present.

 - Systematic basics of layout and editorial design used by most designers on a daily basis. From the setting of the page size, to setting the grid and finally filling the page with images and text, it provides a basic introduction for the designer to begin his/her journey into layout and editorial design.
 - A great quantity of the best in editorial design in recent years amply with and without grids
 - Profound as well as lucid explanation about processes and thoughts behind the scenes of each page
