Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This companion book to Nordic Architects showcases contemporary talents in a region renowned for its product, furniture, and industrial design since Gustaf's reign. The evolution of design and architecture in this area is characterized by a clean aesthetic, craftsmanship, and a focus on human experience. These traditions have influenced recent Western design trends, including universal access and eco-friendly initiatives. However, movements prioritizing intellectual conceit over form have surprised some designers. Through informal interviews with 60 prominent designers, including Peter Opsvik, Front, and Ilkka Suppanen, writer and editor David Sokol delves into the evolving Nordic identity, the challenges of local manufacturing, and the dynamics of the global marketplace. Featured designers include Anders Nord, Anna Kraitz, Björn Dahlström, Camilla Diedrich, Cecilie Manz, Claesson Koivisto Rune, Gunilla Allard, Harri Koskinen, Lena Bergström, Monica Förster, and many others, each contributing to the rich tapestry of contemporary Nordic design.
