The Art of Invention
The story of two watchmakers who established a luxury watch brand and in only a few years created some of the most innovative, refined and sought-after timepieces in the world.
This is the untold story of how two rebellious master watchmakers, Robert Greubel and Stephen Forsey, learned their craft, met, established a brand, and in a few years created some of the most astonishingly beautiful and mechanically sophisticated timepieces ever made. Today they are recognized as the makers of the most uncompromising designs in the world.
The two men met in early 1992 at Renaud et Papi, a hothouse of new watchmaking ideas in Le Locle in the Swiss Jura Mountains. They teamed up and launched Greubel Forsey in 2004 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, refusing to accept that everything had already been invented in watchmaking. Going against the grain, they focused their energy on uncompromising innovation and the most difficult elements of hand finishing, bringing back a level of excellence that would rival the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century masters.
Greubel and Forsey are responsible for many inventions that have advanced watchmaking expertise to new levels as well as creating thirty unique and original calibres since 2004.

Supermodels Discovered
The question that every supermodel gets asked repeatedly is 'how were you discovered?' Fans love to hear how, where and why their icons were plucked from reality and thrown into the hyper-glamorous world of high fashion. Many of the most famous women in the industry have fairytale-like origin stories. Several faced challenging upbringings, coming from obscurity or poverty before being scouted by chance in a supermarket or airport.
Some became celebrities overnight, others fought their way up from a very young age. Hundreds of good models are discovered annually but very few manage to capture public attention and keep it. Many of the supermodels who feature in this book upturned industry norms and beauty ideals, and faced tremendous rejection before finding success.
Plakát je rozměrný list papíru
Kniha Plakát je rozměrný list papíru, která volně navazuje na úspěšnou monografii To musí jít přečíst i potmě!, je prostřední částí zamýšlené trilogie, shrnující práci Karla Halouna za posledních bezmála padesát let. Tentokrát čtenářům představujeme další rozsáhlou část jeho tvorby, kterou tvoří dnes již téměř zanikající propagační médium – plakáty. Publikace zahrnuje práce, které Karel Haloun vytvořil sám či ve spolupráci s grafikem Luďkem Kubíkem a dalšími spoluautory v letech 1976–2024. Některé z jeho plakátů, tištěných zejména v osmdesátých letech v malých nákladech sítotiskem, jsou dnes cennými sběratelskými artikly. Jedná se například o plakát k prvnímu tuzemskému koncertu Rolling Stones v roce 1990 na Strahově nebo koncertní plakáty pro skupiny Jasná páka a Hudba Praha z roku 1981, resp. 1984, a mnohé další. Grafika Karel Haloun, Luděk Kubík /3.dílna/ a Jan Arndt.
Renesanční sklo a evropská tvorba v pozdním benátském stylu
Kniha je součástí dlouhodobého výzkumu Lannovy sbírky skla v Uměleckoprůmyslovém museu v Praze, kterou Vojtěch Lanna - jeden ze zakladatelů a nejvýznamnějších mecenášů muzea - věnoval instituci v roce 1906, čímž ji povýšil mezi přední evropské sbírkotvorné ústavy. Navazuje na předchozí publikace věnované antickému a středověkému sklu a nabízí ucelený pohled na vývoj italského renesančního sklářství i evropské produkce skla v benátském stylu, jehož výroba a tvarosloví přetrvaly v řadě sklářských center až hluboko do baroka. Zvláštní pozornost věnuje českému a německému sklu malovanému emailovými barvami, které v renesanční tradici pokračovalo ještě v 17. a 18. století, a také souboru podmaleb na skle - svébytné a často opomíjené kapitole renesančního umění.

Identity

Kniha přináší texty předních teoretiků a designérů i eseje renomovaných odborníků, jako jsou Steven Heller a Jiří Přibáň, které poskytují důležitý historický a kulturní kontext. Představuje hrdiny českého grafického designu, kteří se proslavili nejen v Čechách, ale i v zahraničí, jako byl Alfons Mucha, Vojtěch Preissig nebo Ladislav Sutnar, a přináší rozhovory s tvůrci, kteří dnes jdou v jejich stopách a reprezentují český grafický design a typografii ve světovém kontextu. Patří mezi ně mimo jiné Veronika Burian, Radim Peško, Aleš Najbrt, František Štorm, Rostislav Vaněk, Zdeněk Ziegler a mnozí další. Seznamte se s fenoménem československého filmového plakátu, s dlouhou tradicí knižní úpravy nebo se současnou tvorbou písma, která je unikátní i ve světovém měřítku. Poznejte, kdy je grafický design silným nástrojem kultivace a kdy se stává propagandou. Kniha mimo jiné přináší dosud nepublikované obrazové materiály, originální skici, makety, fotografie a dokumenty ze soukromých i veřejných sbírek, díky čemuž se stává nezbytným zdrojem pro každého, kdo se zajímá o průnik designu, kultury a historie."

Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good
The first book to chart a visual history of women’s sportswear, and the key role that Nike has played in it over the last 50 years
This is a book about Nike sportswear and what it means to women. The garments women wear, and why they wear them. It’s about athletes, from the elite to the aspiring amateur, running marathons or running errands. It’s about the spaces we perform in, and the way we use clothing to do it: from the track and the fitness studio, to an online world and the street outside.
Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good visualizes the relationship between women and the garments they wear through five design archetypes from sporting history: warm-ups, jerseys, leggings, sport bras, and shorts. Steeped in narrative, history, and Nike’s abundant archive, the book’s rich imagery spans reproductions of Nike’s trade catalogues that date back to the early 1980s, period and contemporary photography, sketches, advertisements, fabric swatches, seasonal color palettes, original design proposals and patents, logos, product and campaign shots, and everything in between.
Each chapter features interviews with Nike athletes, trainers, and other collaborators, along with insightful texts from cultural commentators. Across more than 350 pages and 575 images, this unprecedented volume not only maps the development of women’s sports apparel but proves its potential, in whatever context, to make athletes who identify as women feel at their most powerful.
Featuring contributions from: Dina Asher-Smith, Scout Bassett, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Sue Bird, Deyna Castellanos, Chandra Cheeseborough, Anna Cockrell, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Kirsty Godso, Xochilt Hoover, Rayssa Leal, Tatyana Mcfadden, Naomi Osaka, Megan Rapinoe, Sha’Carri Richardson, Caster Semenya, and Dawn Staley.
Featuring essays by: Dal Chodha, the Editor-in-Chief of Archivist Addendum; Michelle Millar Fisher, the Wornick Curator of Contemporary Decorative Arts at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Heather Radke, an essayist, journalist, and contributing editor, and reporter at Radiolab; Samantha N. Sheppard, an Associate Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Cornell University; and Natalie E. Wright, a historian of design and disability.

nendo: A Big Book of Small Ideas
A large-format book that uncovers the secrets behind Nendo’s unique creative process. He named his firm ‘Nendo’, the Japanese word for modelling clay; he uses manga-like sketches to illustrate his design concepts; and he creates some of the most imaginative furniture in the world: he is Oki Sato, one of Japan’s most prolific designers. At any given moment, he has hundreds of projects in the works – architecture, interiors, furniture, tableware, and more.
‘There is nothing I would not design,’ says Sato. Sato renders his designs with remarkable conceptual clarity. At the outset, he allows his imagination to run wild and then documents his idea with a simple black line drawing – be it a bathroom basin defined by a single, ceramic swirl or a pair of wooden chopsticks that twist together to become one.
These 2D images are converted into minimal 3D shapes described with clean outlines and a largely monochrome palette. Like a traditional Japanese ink painting, which constructs an image with just a few brush strokes, Sato extracts the unnecessary and eliminates distraction. Featuring Sato’s original sketches, full-scale product images and explanatory texts, Project Nendo uncovers and unpicks the designer’s unique creative process, guiding the reader step-by-step through his innovative and playful world to reveal the secrets behind fifty of his inimitable works.
