Hardback, 285 x 320mm., 216pp., 200 colour and b/w illustrations. . ISBN 9783832794163. Swarovski Crystal Palace is arguably the most important and inspired design project of our times. Devised and instigated by Nadja Swarovski, it provides a snapshot of the most exciting and creative minds of the first decade of the 21st century. Since its inception in 2002 during the Milan Furniture Fair, Swarovski Crystal Palace has changed the course of design, by establishing a platform for leading players in international design to conceptualise, develop and share their most radical works. Swarovski Crystal Palace is a think tank for the convergence of art, design, science and technology. This ongoing forum has commissioned such noteworthy talents as Ron Arad, Zaha Hadid and Vincent van Duysen to develop original artworks implementing crystal as a creative ingredient. ?The Art of Light and Crystal? is a beautifully illustrated book, which tells the unique story of the Swarovski Crystal Palace project, marking their 10th anniversary and includes interviews with many of the creatives involved. It also traces the groundbreaking ethos that defines Swarovski, following the 115-year history of this remarkable family, and contextualizing its continuing legacy ? a must-read for all design enthusiasts, professionals and students.
