Fusing exquisite design with engineering, shoe design is quite unlike any other fashion discipline. Feted in fashion magazines and on television, shoes have become more coveted, more collectible and more expensive in recent years, and contemporary footwear design is now one of the most important and interesting areas of the fashion industry. Showcasing some of the most exciting and innovative contemporary footwear designers from across the globe, this book reflects the rich and diverse range of cutting-edge design. Using specially commissioned photography, never before published sketches, and original design material, New Shoes brings together a rich mix of desirable shoes, sandals and boots to illustrate the unique blend of design skill and craftsmanship that footwear design demands.

Conceived by the creative minds behind the renowned studio Garrofé in Barcelona, the 140 designs displayed in New Structural Packaging reveal the incredible possibilities and functions that this particular area of design offers.

The studio’s work for clients such as Relais & Châteaux, Cadbury’s, Puig, Beiersdorf and Freixenet prove the creative, versatile and refined approach to the field.

This book will be an essential reference and a valuable toolkit for packaging designers and design students.

In the wide field of design, the designing of textiles is regarded as a special discipline. It requires a deeper understanding of the technical side of the production of textiles as well as a specific knowledge of each fabric, of its uses, its properties and characteristics (dyes, fibres and colourings). “New Textile Design” covers the many and various forms of the discipline. It includes clothing, caps, shoes, scarves, bags and appliqués, bedclothes, upholstery and lampshades. Even textile trinkets and other accessories are featured on the following pages.

The collected designs range from central motifs (on t-shirts, for instance) to patterns which often have to compete with the visible structures of the fabric. Additionally, the very form and manner of the presentation can become an interesting part of the work. Thus, we've included everything from sketches to elaborately staged photos.

Motives, patterns, textures - “New Textile Design” covers the whole range of soft goods.

Non facturé is the term used by French photo labs for images not suitable for printing, because they are, for instance, over or under-exposed, not sharp, or taken by accident. However, even though these pictures were originated by accident or through error, they can have an unexpected, spontaneous quality - which might be impossible to achieve on purpose. This book and CD-ROM set contains more than 100 of such pictures, selected on their often mysterious beauty and graphic quality.
