An extensive historical with nearly 300 colour illustrations, analytical and descriptive survey of the major Post-Modern designers and their works. Featuring furniture, ceramics, metalware, lighting, jewellery, fabrics and carpets, in a comprehensive historical reference for post modern design.
Well-illustrated survey written by Michael Collins; edited by Andreas Papadakis with with contributions by Volker Fischer, Charles Jencks and Paolo Portoghesi.
“The rapid growth and acceptance of Post-Modernism notwithstanding, much of the general public is hard put to define it. This beautifully produced book describes the movement’s vibrant use of ornament, symbolism, and color while reinterpreting the traditional design values we all recognize. After the minimalist and technocratic approach of the 1960s and early 1970s, architects are relearning Greek and Roman design and reusing it, often with irony, in everything from a structure’s shell to its silverware. Several dozen architects, designers, and manufacturers are featured, including Hans Hollein, Michael Graves, Robert Venturi, and Stanley Tigerman. A book that is both intellectually stimulating and visually exciting.”
