Synopsis
At the invitation of the Steelcase Design Partnership - a group of leading contract furnishing, lighting and textile companies - more than 120 prestigious firms in the various fields of design were asked to share their ideas on the world of materials. Now available for the first time in paperback, MONDO MATERIALIS showcases the most elegant and exciting designs produced. The object of this project was to record each architect or designer's ideas regarding the material at hand - be it recycled, found, or specially developed by industrial designers - and to demonstrate the possibilities it presented. Each created a 30-inch square collage panel - and the resulting images provide a stunning glimpse into the ways and means by which some of the most useful and beautiful aspects of our everyday lives have been and will continue to be created. MONDO MATERIALIS is an invaluable idea and design source book for any architect or materials designer, or for anyone interested in design.
