Repertorio del Design italiano 1950-2000 per l'arredamento domestico

About the Item

The most comprehensive resource on mid to late 20th-century Italian design. Covering 50 years of furniture designs, this two-volume boxed set is organised by year and broken into sections on seating, furniture and lighting. Designs are clearly depicted with black-and-white photographs and descriptive captions. The work of Ettorre Sottsass, Achille Castiglioni, Mario Bellini, Vico Magistretti, Enzo Mari and Gae Aulenti appears frequently, alongside the work of such lesser-known giants as Carlo d'Carli, Gian Franco Frattini, Osvaldo Borsani and Angelo Mangiarotti. Recognition is also paid to hundreds of Italy's premier furniture manufacturers, including Cassina, Arteluce, Artemide, Azucena, B&B, Bonacina, Cappellini, Cassina, Driade, Flos, Fontana Arte, Kartell, Memphis, O-Luce, Poltronova and Zanotta. Although completely written in Italian, it provides an informative visual guide for anyone looking to find a specific modern Italian design or wishing to trace the evolution of a 20th-century Italian designer.

“The Paris Salons”, 1895-1914 Furniture ‘Book’
Located in Montelabbate, PU
This is the third in a multi-volume collection providing a visual catalogue record of the decorative arts of the Paris Salons. Included in this volume are reproductions of the catalogue illustrations of furniture at the Exposition Universelle of 1900, the annual Salons du Mobilier, and the celebrated 1903 and 1904 expositions of the Ecole de Nancy in the French capital. This chronological record clearly shows the revolution in furniture design that transpired in France at the turn of the century. The illustrations trace precisely the emergence of the art nouveau style in the 1890s, its high point between the 1900 Exposition Universelle and the 1903 Salons, its demise between 1905-1909, the return to period revivalism and the transitional art nouveau - art deco style of 1910-1912 with the proto - art deco style of the immediate pre-war years (1911-1914). Many examples of non-art nouveau works from the period are also included. Hundreds of these contemporary illustrations...
