Paperback. Condition: Good. Chronicle Books LLC, San Francisco, California. Published date: 2001. Softcover in wraps, 232 pp; 22 cm. First printing. EX-LIBRARY. Illustrated throughout with numerous color and black and white photographs and diagrams of industrial design objects and mechanisms. In good condition with very good tra…nslucent printed paper wraps. Covers have light bumping to edges and corners with mild surface wear and handling marks; visible tape residue to top and bottom edges and faint discoloration to front and rear covers from former library coverings. Library stamp present on title page and circular blind stamp on p 13; card pocket affixed to inside rear cover. Binding firm; previous owner's name, date and "used" written in ink on half-title page; interior pages otherwise clean and unmarked. [From Introduction p 7] This is the first general introduction to collapsibles - objects that, in one way or another, fold out for action and fold up for storage. "Collapsible" used as a noun is a neologism. This book is the first to use the word to refer to any object that is in some way collapsible, rather than to describe it in terms of that quality. Sometimes you need the word first before you can think about a thing in depth. The prime purpose of this book is to discuss a subject never thoroughly explored before. But beyond that, the aim is to inspire designers to create space-saving objects of great elegance and functionality. Mies van der Rohe's "less is more" and Dieter Rams's "less is better" have never been so true as they are today. The selection of objects illustrated in Collapsible is heavily biased towards ingenuity. Brilliant solutions have shamelessly been given priority over the satisfaction of commonplace needs, with no attempt at completeness. Collapsible is not a manual but an album for inspiration. Contents include: Introduction: A strategy for survival; Fold it: A category is born; Space saving; Change, mother of invention; Nature's own method; The function of collapsibility; The nons and the quasis; Mechanics: Classifying collapsibility; Stress; Folding; Creasing; Bellows; Assembling; Hinging; Rolling; Sliding; Nesting; Inflation; Fanning; Concertina; Furniture: Mobile functionality; Stools; Chairs; Beds, sofabeds and sofas; Tables; Storage furniture; Sources: Bibliography; Sources of photos; Index.

Condition: Good. 21 x 22 cm- A tight and unmarked copy-" Gadgets galore! Everything from cameras that collapse to keyboards that curl. Murphy beds, folding scooters, portable showers, they're all here. The first ever of its kind, "Collapsible" is a comprehensive survey of all that breaks down, balls up, pulls apart, and stacks t…ogether. Why collapse? Internationally renowned Danish designer Per Mollerup answers with every imaginable example from the past and present. The inclusion of a Swiss army knife shouldn't come as a surprise, but what about a retractable bulletproof vest, circa 1918- With over 530 illustrations, this book is a must-have for design aficionados and anyone who has an affinity for clever product design. "Collapsible" is both an ode to ingenuity and an album for inspiration!" Review: "If you carry an umbrella, have Venetian blinds on your windows, or have ever sat in a deck chair, you've visited the land of objects that are Collapsible."-Edge wear -sticker residue on the rear cover.
