'One of the most fascinating industrial designers in Europe' - Sony. Industrial designer Jane Worthington (1969, UK) graduated from the highly acclaimed De Monfort University in 1990 and immediately moved to Holland to join Philips Design where she remained until 1995. During that period, she worked with Alexandro Mendini at his studio in Milan on important design projects such as Television at the Crossroads and the Cafe for the Domotechnica Fair for the Philips-Alessi line. She was also responsible for the design of the complete headphone range for which she received a design prize for the sbc333 headphone series. After 1995, Worthington gradually moved her design emphasis away from electronic goods to furniture and currently works for leading international manufacturers in Switzerland, the Netherlands and Belgium. Functional, innovative and sculptural figuration are key features to her award winning work for the Sede which has been included in the "International Design Yearbook 2003". Her work has been exhibited worldwide (Pompidou Centre in Paris, Magna Pars in Milan, Evoluon in Eindhoven, MAK in Vienna, DAZ in Berlin, The National Gallery, Prague). In "Designing Life", Jane Worthington not only showcases her creations, but takes the reader on a tour throughout her house, talks about her sources of inspiration and gives tips regarding design, decorating and even designing food. It is an intimate book that gives a inside view in the world of a top designer.

Minimum Design: An indispensable compendium on important designers of the modern era
An ideal and accessible introduction suitable for students and lovers of design today

During his brief but prolific career, Cesare "Joe" Colombo became one of the most inventive figures in contemporary Italian design. His futuristic designs included 'micro-living-worlds'; multi-functional objects that aimed to save space and time and accommodate the needs of modern living spaces. These objects led to his Visiona, the 'habitat for the future' that reinvented seating, storage, lighting and other furnishings that reflected his emphasis on change and the possibilities offered by new technologies. All his items were affordably priced and designed for large-scale production and consumption, making him a major player in the evolution of the iconic 'sixties style' that is still prevalent in interior design trends today.

Published in the same style as the successful Minimum Architects series, the Minimum Designers series includes books about the major figures in the field of design, creators of objects that have become a part of our daily lives. The lamp on our desk, the chair we are sitting on or the glasses we are wearing have a genius behind them to be discovered.

These volumes will introduce in a practical manner the personalities and the works of the world's major designers by way of an historical-critical introduction to the work and life of each individual designer. An accurate selection of the designer's most famous objects arranged in chronological order and a critique of his or her work summarising the most significant reviews published in magazines and newspapers will complete the subject.

No more boring lamps and lights!

The effect of light cannot be overestimated. The most splendid interior will not shine without adequate lighting.

In the last few years, a new school of lamp designers and light manufacturers have taken the lead in creating and developing a new frontier of domestic lighting. These innovative solutions reflect the cutting-edge of contemporary furniture design, interior design, and architecture as much as a recent quantum leap in illumination technology. Lux offers an inspiring range of these current approaches to lamps and lighting that represent a fundamental change in the aesthetic and technical possibilities available.

Many countries around the world have already banned or are in the process of phasing out traditional incandescent light bulbs in favor of more energy-efficient lighting. Because these familiar sources of illumination are becoming extinct, the areas of lighting and light design are currently experiencing significant changes. New technologies such as LEDs and OLEDs are inspiring both designers and manufacturers to develop new forms, functionalities, structures, and constructions.

Lux describes and documents this current evolution in lighting and light design. The book presents an eclectic collection of up-to-the-minute light-related projects, focusing on their impact on areas such as product design, technology, and art. Because existing lamp forms and silhouettes often serve as the basis for cutting-edge work or are being integrated into new technologies and aesthetics in a playful way, Lux features innovative and surprising ideas for chandeliers and classic table, wall, and hanging lamps.

The book shows how recently developed light sources that radiate less heat can be combined with a far broader spectrum of materials than we have ever seen before. It also presents examples of experimental installations with light as well as ways in which illumination is being used to enhance an atmosphere, create objects, or structure space.

In short, Lux features an inspiring range of current approaches to the use of light that represent a fundamental change in the technical and aesthetic possibilities available.

Menswear is one of the most creative and dynamic areas in fashion today. Changing attitudes, a relaxation of dress codes and larger disposable incomes have all led to men spending more money on looking good than ever before. Modern Menswear is defying convention and changing the fashion landscape. Creating this focus is a group of visionaries who have shifted the boundaries of menswear design, designers who have broken with tradition to visualize radical and directional clothing. They are not concerned with the formalities and traditions of menswear, but see their garments as an expression of contemporary thought. With a huge range of imagery, Modern Menswear showcases these fashion leaders, profiling big names and emerging talent from across the world. Designers featured include Marc Jacobs, Yoji Yamamoto, Vivienne Westwood and John Galliano, with an insight into their design processes and their contribution to the contemporary fashion aesthetic.
