Wedgwood: Craft & Design (Victoria and Albert Museum)
A beautifully designed gift book devoted to the work of the renowned ceramics firm Wedgwood, which has thrived from 1759 to the present day.
Looking back at key moments in Wedgwood’s design history, this book celebrates the manufacturer’s visual power and great design from its founding in 1759 to the present day.
The name Wedgwood has come to stand for something far beyond its illustrious and energetic founder: it has united art and industry; introduced design and artistic collaborations; and pioneered the development ofthe firm’s iconic blue-and-white jasperware. This book tells that story through design, reflecting the continuing role that Wedgwood and its designers, artists, and employees have played in setting trends?including collaborations with many British artists and designers such as Christopher Dresser, Eric Ravilious, and Keith Murray. Wedgwood continuously responds to the market and produces high-quality, desirable ceramicsfor a broad range of consumers, yet remains faithful to the traditions established by Josiah Wedgwood in the eighteenth century.
The book presents highlights from the internationally renowned V&A Wedgwood Collection, praised by the Art Fund?one of the UK’s leading art organizations?as “one of the most important industrial archives,” containing around 80,000 objects. This archive reflects the unique proposition of Wedgwood’s business: by operating in both the “ornamental” and “useful” markets, Wedgwood has been able to bring innovative ceramic design to a broad and increasingly international clientele. These ceramics and their stories demonstrate the artistic heritage, craft, and innovation that have become synonymous with the Wedgwood name for more than 250 years.

Jeanne Lanvin - Fashion pioneer
Jeanne Lanvin was ahead of her time. The French fashion visionary and imaginative businesswoman from a poor background not only created the first designer fashion line for children - this was colourful and full of lightness, at a time when children were still dressed like adults - the first tailored men's collection and the first unisex eau de toilette, she also founded the longest-running fashion company in the world. This at times employed over 1000 people and included women's, children's and men's fashion, accessories, fragrances, furnishing textiles and decorative objects, and even its own paint factory.
The self-taught Lanvin started as a hat maker with her own boutique and managed to become one of the greatest fashion designers of the 20th century with creative energy and inventiveness. She created art deco costumes for theatre and film productions, developed the legendary perfume Arpege and a special Lanvin blue, based on the shade Fra Angelico blue. This richly illustrated coffee table book is dedicated to the extraordinary life and work of this exceptional designer.

Ve sborníku jsou prezentovány specializované studie z jednotlivých odborných etap a tematických celků, včetně textů zahraničních i domácích specialistů. Studie se zaměřují na několik okruhů. Jedná se o vymezení některých pojmů, k nimž patří historický interiér, původní technologie, kvalita materiálů anebo autenticita. Příspěvky dále sledují stavební prvky jako nedílnou součást historického interiéru a rekonstrukce historických interiérů či jejich částí s využitím znalostí původních technologií a materiálů. Studie vystihují autentické tradiční technologie a materiály, jejich kvalitativní výzkum s cílem identifikovat příčiny a faktory, které jsou zdrojem transmise, modifikace nebo zániku tradičních řemeslných technologií. Neopomíjí ani dopad detailních znalostí tradičních materiálů a technologií na rehabilitaci historických objektů. Jednotlivé texty ve sborníku mohou proto přispět k ochraně, restaurování, prezentaci a edukaci v oblasti tradičních řemesel spojených se stavební činností a interiérovou tvorbou v měšťanském a aristokratickém prostředí.
Antonín Heythum
Antonín Heythum (1901-1954) byl výjimečnou a výraznou osobností výtvarné kultury v meziválečném Československu a později v USA. Významně zasáhl do několika oborů (scénografie, architektura, nábytek, průmyslový design, pracoval jako vysokoškolský pedagog), avšak jeho tvorba byla dosud zpracována zlomkovitě, bez širšího kontextu, izolovaně a s omezením pouze na některé obory. Přípravě knihy předcházelo pečlivé zmapování jeho rozsáhlého mezioborového díla v archívech na českém i americkém území s cílem popsat a zhodnotit jeho přínos pro všechny zmíněné oblasti. Pečlivě je popsána rovněž jeho spolupráce s významnými umělci (Man Ray, Erwin Piscator, Max Ernst, Marcel Duchamp, Frederic Kann atd.) a jeho výstavní aktivity probíhající ve více než šedesáti místech Evropy a USA. Knižní monografie vychází v česko-anglické jazykové mutaci. Publikace obsahuje úplný soupis inscenací Antonína Heythuma, rejstřík a resumé. Text doprovází bohatý obrazový materiál z rodinné pozůstalosti, českých a amerických sbírek (plány, kresby, scénické a kostýmní návrhy, fotografie, rukopisy) a poznámkový aparát.

Overal magazín
Tématem publikace je nahlédnutí do uvažování o módě v širším sociokulturním kontextu. Reflektuje aspekty a tendence současného nezávislého oděvního designu a věnuje se především teoretickým souvislostem. Pozornost je upřena na autory a jejich díla, u kterých oděv přesahuje svůj užitný rámec, stává se aktivismem, propojuje se s volným uměním, či vstupuje jako narativ do kulturně-sociologického kontextu společnosti. Jde o antologii zahraničních textů a dalších teoretických článků doplněných o rozhovory s autory, tvůrci, teoretiky i odborníky mimo umělecké obory (sociology). V obrazové části jsou zastoupeny projekty a díla zahraničních autorů a fotografie Veroniky Čechmánkové a Terezy Havlínkové. Grafika Jakub Samek.

Colour Clash
Colour is one of the essential elements of many branding designs. It can help give an identity personality and warmth, express emotion, communicate messages in an unconscious and subtle way and it can keep or navigate the viewer’s interest, drawing the eye and making elements stand out.
This book explores colour palettes in graphic design that surprise, engage, challenge and grab our attention - the combinations that maybe shouldn’t work but just do. These are palettes that break the established rules and laws we have been taught about colour theory and remind us that colour can be fun as well as meaningful.
The Cartier Tank Watch
A timeless piece of modern watchmaking, Cartier’s Tank watch is an icon that never ceases to renew itself.
Created by Louis Cartier in 1917, the Tank watch is an icon of modern watchmaking. The re?ned design of this wristwatch, combining geometry and harmony, de?nes its strong identity. Immediately recognizable and always in step with the times, the Tank watch has been reinterpreted for more than a century through multiple variations that are forever faithful to the spirit of the original design, from the Tank Cintrée to the Tank Chinoise, and from the Tank Américaine to the Tank Française.
Featuring extensive archival documents along with previously unpublished photographs, this volume explores, through the passionate pen of a true connoisseur, the most signi?cant Tank watches and their technical characteristics. The author also presents portraits of famous clients who, over time, have been seduced by this timeless timepiece.
Augmented with a chapter on new models created since 2017, this new edition offers a journey into the heart of the myth.
Worn
Linen, Cotton, Silk, Synthetics, Wool: through the stories of these five fabrics, Sofi Thanhauser illuminates the world we inhabit in a startling new way, travelling from China to Cumbria to reveal the craft, labour and industry that create the clothes we wear.
From the women who transformed stalks of flax into linen to clothe their families in nineteenth century New England to those who earn their dowries in the cotton-spinning factories of South India today, this book traces the origins of garment-making through time and around the world. Exploring the social, economic and environmental impact of our most personal possessions, Worn looks beyond care labels to show how clothes reveal the truth about what we really care about.
Hermes: Príbeh ikonickej módnej značky
Unikátny obrazový sprievodca históriou módnej značky Hermes
Príbeh slávneho módneho domu začal písať francúzsky sedlár a postrojár Thierry Hermes v roku 1837 v sedlárskej dielni. Jeho unikátna metóda šitia, vďaka ktorej držia stehy pevne pri sebe, aj keby jeden či dva povolili, sa pri výrobe kabeliek tejto značky používa dodnes.
Kniha História módy do vrecka: Hermes rozpráva o značke, ktorá spája majstrovstvo minulosti s eleganciou súčasnosti. Ikonické kabelky, typické oranžové škatuľky, fanúšikovia z radov prominentov – módne doplnky značky Hermes sú dnes synonymom luxusu a stali sa ozdobou šatníkov Grace Kellyovej, Jane Birkinovej, Victorie Beckhamovej či Cardi B.
Text uznávanej odborníčky na módu Karen Homerovej dopĺňa množstvo fotografií najžiadanejších výrobkov vrátane hodvábnych šatiek, legendárnych kabeliek Birkin a Kelly či záberov z prehliadkových mól.

Graphite
There is something distinctly visceral about graphite art, where every stroke of the artist or illustrator seems to convey emotion in its purest form. At a time when almost everything can be digitally done up to perfection, the smudges and smears by graphite can be refreshing to the eye and unapologetically human - touching viewers to the core. As a creative tool, it can also be the simplest and most affordable medium with which to express oneself and find joy.
GRAPHITE is a stunning collection of pencil artwork by creatives around the world who have skilfully mastered the art of drawing by hand to make their mark. Featuring various subject matters and styles, it makes for a beautiful addition to the bookshelf and invites you to step away from your screen every now and then to, perhaps, pick up a pencil yourself and appreciate the simple things in life.
Snails and Monkey Tails
An entertaining, informative, and elegantly designed guide that makes understanding punctuation marks and symbols simple and fun. A rollicking linguistic ride for fans of Eats, Shoots & Leaves, and Just My Type. What is the purpose of the comma - perhaps the most used symbol in the English language - and what are the proper uses of the asterisk? Do quote marks go inside or outside punctuation? What about a quote within a quote - a quote from someone quoting someone else? How much space goes on either side of an ellipsis? What's the difference between an en dash and an em dash?
Snails and Monkey Tails is a show-stopping guide with more than 75 uniquely designed two-color spreads. Award-winning graphic designer Michael Arndt explores the typographic origins, names, and shapes of both common punctuation marks and symbols, as well as the proper and diverse usage of each. From the full stop to the question mark, the semicolon to the en dash, symbols, and marks are an integral part of the language.
Umění šperku v zemích Orientu
Touha po zdobení těla je stará jako lidstvo samo. Lidé se vždy zdobili, a tím se od sebe navzájem odlišovali. Šperk podtrhoval individualitu jednotlivce a přitahoval pohledy ostatních. Obrazově bohatě vybavená monografie, vycházející především ze sbírek Národního muzea a Západočeského muzea v Plzni, se věnuje šperkařství na území od Tibetu po Blízký východ. Cílem publikace je postihnout v hlavních rysech vše, co je z historického hlediska pro sledované oblasti typické, co po staletí spoluvytvářelo charakter šperků daných zemí, regionu či etnika a co nám tak poskytuje obraz identity lidí, kteří žili a stále žijí v takto rozsáhlém a kulturně různorodém prostředí.

Monobloc
A visual history of the world's most famous and ubiquitous chair
The Monobloc is the bestselling piece of furniture of all time: an estimated one billion copies of this white plastic chair are in circulation all over the world. This book arises from a documentary by German film director Hauke Wendler, who spent eight years filming on five continents to explore the impact of the Monobloc on a global scale.
Combining archival documentation with images from Wendler’s film (to be released in 2022), this book complicates the narrative and mystery of the Monobloc's popularity. Embracing its ubiquity, it also addresses the chair’s environmental, economic and aesthetic impacts. How does the Monobloc threaten our environment and good taste? Finally, how has it become indispensable to millions of people for whom a chair is a chair and nothing more?
This book offers insight, through film, photography and design history, into the story of how an unremarkable, stackable chair conquered the world.
Letters from M/M (Paris)
A fabulous typographic exploration of the letter forms and typography of one of Europe’s leading design studios.
Letters from M/M (Paris) is a comprehensive study of the typefaces produced by Michaël Amzalag and Mathias Augustyniak since they founded their influential art and design practice, M/M (Paris).
For the first time, ninety of the designers’ typefaces are catalogued chronologically in a three-part volume, comprising the history of their development; exclusive type specimens; and detailed illustrations of projects in which they appear.
With a foreword by Björk?whose collaboration with M/M spans over two decades?this encyclopaedic volume traces the distinctive and integral nature of type, lettering, and signs in the work of M/M, from one-off artistic commissions to fashion branding and their long-lasting collaborations with musicians and theatres.
This complete typographic collection is the perfect companion to the two-volume monograph M to M of M/M (Paris), and will appeal not only to graphic designers, historians, and students, but to anyone interested in art and visual culture.
