Not just another book on architecture and design: Atmosphere invites, encourages and motivates. It goes beyond the basic components of form, colour and material to identify and explore seven atmospheric layers that not only exist simultaneously but – owing to their fleeting nature – can easily merge to form new combinations, over and over again: Almost Alive, Fields of Colour, Drawing the Line, In the Mix, Form Follows Fold, Handicraft 2.0, Down to Earth.
Atmosphere is a seven-part exploration of the themes that spark creative work. It delves into a renewed interest in handicrafts, into creases and crinkles as generators of form, into nature as an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Learn how designers deal with the chill perfection of CAD and how they counter a period of baroque extravagance.
Each chapter is lavishly illustrated with recent work by top designers, architects and artists. Atmosphere will pump oxygen into future projects – including yours.
Nicht einfach ein weiteres Buch über Architektur und Design: Atmosphere lädt ein, ermutigt und spornt an. Jeder kreative Prozess kann in seiner Mehrschichtigkeit analysiert und auf grundlegende Komponenten reduziert werden: Form, Farbe, Material. Dieses Buch erforscht sieben atmosphärische Schichten, die nicht nur nebeneinander existieren, sondern – aufgrund ihrer flüchtigen Natur – auch in immer wieder neue Kombinationen verschmelzen: Almost Alive, Fields of Colour, Drawing the Line, In the Mix, Form Follows Fold, Handicraft 2.0, Down to Earth..
Atmosphere ist eine siebenteilige Erkundung der Leitmotive, die kreative Arbeit auslösen. Es vertieft sich in das neu erwachte Interesse für Handarbeit, in Faltenwürfe und Knittereffekte als Formgeber, in die Natur als unerschöpfliche Inspirationsquelle. Erleben Sie, wie Designer mit der kühlen Perfektion von CAD umgehen und einer Phase der barocken Extravaganz begegnen.
Jedes Kapitel ist reichhaltig illustriert mit aktuellen Arbeiten von Top-Designern, Architekten und Künstlern. Bleibt zu hoffen, dass der Sauerstoff aus Atmosphere in zukünftige Projekte gepumpt wird – auch in Ihre!
