Detail in Contemporary Lighting Design
Lighting is a key feature of almost all interiors but it is often treated in a rather superficial manner in most books. It is, however, a complex, fast-moving field where the technology is always changing. For large schemes, a professional lighting designer is usually employed, but for smaller projects it will often fall to the architect or interior designer to specify the lighting. In either case, it is crucial that the architect or interior designer understands what lighting is available, how it can be used and controlled and how it can be fitted. This book features 40 recent international projects. Each project features detailed plans, diagrams, sketches and CAD visuals to demonstrate the lighting techniques involved. This is accompanied by an explanatory text (how the lighting fulfilled the brief, how the lighting concept was arrived at, why particular light fittings/lamps were specified and so on). A bonus CD includes technical drawings from the book.

Denn Rei Kawakubo brach nicht einfach nur mit dem less is more der Moderne, sie erschüttert unsere Idee von Bekleidung in den Grundfesten und verwischt dabei die Grenzen zwischen Mode und Kunst auf immer neue, immer wieder überraschende Weise. 120 Seiten, nach denen man Mode mit anderen Augen sieht. Mit biografischen und persönlichen Informationen zur "japanischen Coco Chanel", Fotografien von Paolo Roversi, David Bailey oder Emma Summerton sowie Interviews mit der Designerin von Jamie Huckbody, Josh Sims und Terry Jones.
