Resumen:
Swedish Design.Swedish Design is principally a book about design, but it also offers an exploration of the pleasure, knowledge, and inspiration behind design. Fourteen of Sweden's most interesting photographers provide a rich and varied documentation of the contemporary Swedish design scene, capturing the artists, their work, and their environment, plus a number of key producers and contributors. An illustrated history surveys Swedish design from 1845 to the present while a glossary and directory provide further information on this growing industry. With text by design authority Susanne Helgeson, and illustrated with 1000 images, Swedish Design is ambitious and illuminating; it is the first major book on the subject, and a classic for all those interested in design and the strikingly innovative Swedish design scene in particular. |
