Sailing Yachts
Without having to rely on the power of engines, sailing yachts glide effortlessly through the waves, fulfilling dreams of freedom, adventure, luxury or relaxation. Next to the challenges posed by using materials and spatial concepts that must withstand the forces of wind and water, designers and shipyards must also creatively comply with the increasingly extravagant wishes of the owners. Current trends include extremely flexible fittings that turn the time spent on board into a very special experience such as a cockpit table that converts into a sun bed with a simple twist of the hand, or into an inviting lounge at the push of a button. This book presents a selection of 40 sailing yachts constituting the entire range of available models of this type of boat from racers to cruisers, and from the 7 meter-long maritime design gem to the luxury-class mega-yacht with a length of more than 100 meters. Welcome on board "

Islamic Geometric Design
Islamic geometric designs are admired worldwide for their beauty and marvellous intricacy, yet in truth they are seldom understood. Indeed, their complexity and artistry can seem almost beyond the powers of human ingenuity. In this handsomely illustrated volume, artist and teacher Eric Broug analyses and explains these complex designs in their historical and physical context. His own original drawings accompany magnificent photographs of mosques, madrasas, palaces and tombs from the Islamic world, ranging from North Africa to Iran and Uzbekistan, and from the 8th to the 19th centuries. Chapters are devoted to each of the main families of geometric design fourfold, fivefold and sixfold and to the complex combined patterns. Every design is carefully explained, and illustrated with a wealth of stunning photographs and clear, meticulously detailed drawings. Readers can follow the design processes by which these patterns were created and even learn to reproduce and invent geometric patterns for themselves, using exactly the same tools as the Islamic craftsmen of old: a ruler and a pair of compasses.

Pattern Making
Pattern making, patternmaking, pattern cutting or flat patterning, are all words that describe the process of creating a two-dimensional diagram or template of a garment, drafted on a flat surface from either body measurements or transferred from a draped muslin. The starting point of a pattern is a sloper. Slopers are basic patterns that are drafted containing a certain amount of wearing ease for the wearer's comfort and are created without seam allowances.
Slopers are used as the foundation or template for creating design variations that are subsequently cut and sewn in fabric. In this book you will start by learning how to create a sloper for a basic sleeve before moving on to collars, bodices, skirts, and trousers. Each lesson in the book is illustrated in meticulous detail in a series of step-by-step photographs accompanied by charts, diagrams, and photos from the catwalk.
Videos to accompany this book are available at www.universityoffashion.com.

Redesigning Logos
At some point in the life of a company comes a time when its logo needs to be redesigned. The reasons can vary: the logo may already be or look outdated, or it may be necessary to adapt it to a digital environment that did not exist when it was created, or perhaps another element must be incorporated, or the company is diversifying and the logo must reflect that change. When that time comes, it is important to take into account several factors so as not to lose the essence of the brand, ensuring the public continues to recognize it. This book presents some of the best examples of logo redesigns and provides valuable information on how designers have arrived at their particular solution

Kimono
The kimono is the ultimate symbol of Japan, revered within the country as the embodiment of national culture and regarded internationally as an exotic fascination. The iconic garment is often viewed as traditional, unchanging and timeless, but this book counters that conception, presenting the kimono as highly dynamic and fashionable dress. The cultural and sartorial significance of the kimono is explored in historical and contemporary contexts, both in Japan and the West, where its impact on clothing styles has been felt since the seventeenth century. Beautifully illustrated, the book features over 250 kimono and kimono-inspired garments from the V&A and collections around the world, revealing its sartorial influence on pop stars from David Bowie to Bjoerk and examining the ways in which fashion designers such as Issey Miyake, John Galliano and Alexander McQueen have reworked its legacy.

Living in Style - How We Live
Private encounters in Exceptional Environments! The strange artwork that hangs above the bed, the well-sorted sneaker collection: artifacts, the stuff of life-insanely expensive or sentimental mementos-from around the world. These are the things that spark the imagination, that make you want to change things in your own home. And they reveal an awful lot about the character, dreams, and souls of these lucky few. The authors and photographers from Welt am Sonntag visited these top creative minds, artists and style icons in their homes. Among them are a daughter of Danish architect and designer Verner Panton, the son of the legendary Piero Fornasetti, Picasso biographer John Richardson, Axel Vervoordt, the master of sparse opulence, an attorney who is also a passionate collector, a Frenchman who reigns over a hair-care empire in New York, and Berlin's most controversial architect. The results are far from highly polished photo productions in which each bouquet of flowers is carefully arranged, each coffee table book straightened at a right angle with the homeowners hiding behind perfect tastes. Here you'll find our rather intimate encounters that offer glimpses into unmapped territories. Private, curious, and-fortunately-a little eccentric. We would like to thank these people for inviting us into their homes. At the same time, we would like to encourage our readers to take this book as a halfway-serious encouragement for shaping your own lives. A portrait of Mick Jagger by Andy Warhol over the mantel, a vase you have made yourself or a thoroughly impractical gigantic sculpture in the dining room make life simply better. In other words, stop listening to the TV and try this at home! Style experts and co-authors, Adriano Sack and Dagmar von Taube, have compiled the most beautiful home stories published in Welt am Sonntag into a fascinating photo volume that is a wonderful source of ideas for your own home.

Ascher: Šílený hedvábník
Prekrásne pripravená kniha odkrýva príbeh u nás zabudnutých českých rodákov Ziku Aschera a jeho manželky Lídy, ktorých meno a značka sú na Západe už sedemdesiat rokov synonymom textilného dizajnu. Po dramatickom odchode z Československa v roku 1939 sa im v Londýne podarilo vybudovať úspešnú firmu špecializujúcu sa na odevné látky. Z textílií firmy Ascher vytvárali svoje kolekcie módne domy vo Francúzsku ako aj v Británii alebo v Taliansku, medzi inými napríklad Dior, Balenciaga, Lanvin, Cardin, Y. S. Laurent, Paterson, Sassoon alebo Fabiani. Publikácia prepája všetky stránky ich bohatých osudov a poskytuje ucelený obraz zahŕňajúci odborné, umelecké aj technické aspekty. Kniha vychádza v spolupráci s Umeleckopriemyselnými múzeom v Prahe a je súčasťou rovnomennej výstavy.

Designing Media
Connections and clashes between new and old media, as told by interviewees ranging from the founder of Twitter to the publisher of the New York Times.
Mainstream media, often known simply as MSM, have not yet disappeared in a digital takeover of the media landscape. But the long-dominant MSM?television, radio, newspapers, magazines, and books?have had to respond to emergent digital media. Newspapers have interactive Web sites; television broadcasts over the Internet; books are published in both electronic and print editions. In Designing Media, design guru Bill Moggridge examines connections and conflicts between old and new media, describing how the MSM have changed and how new patterns of media consumption are emerging. The book features interviews with thirty-seven significant figures in both traditional and new forms of mass communication; interviewees range from the publisher of the New York Times to the founder of Twitter. We learn about innovations in media that rely on contributions from a crowd (or a community), as told by Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales and Craigslist's Craig Newmark; how the band OK Go built a following using YouTube; how real-time connections between dispatchers and couriers inspired Twitter; how a BusinessWeek blog became a quarterly printed supplement to the magazine; and how e-readers have evolved from Rocket eBook to QUE. Ira Glass compares the intimacy of radio to that of the Internet; the producer of PBS's Frontline supports the program's investigative journalism by putting documentation of its findings online; and the developers of Google's Trendalyzer software describe its beginnings as animations that accompanied lectures about social and economic development in rural Africa. At the end of each chapter, Moggridge comments on the implications for designing media. Designing Media is illustrated with hundreds of images, with color throughout. A DVD accompanying the book includes excerpts from all of the interviews, and the material can be browsed at www.designing-media.com.

AHA - limitovaná drevená edícia
Raz sa ma v zahraničí opýtali, či som hrdý na to, že som Slovák.
„Áno“, povedal som.
Potom sa ma opýtali ťažšiu otázku.
Prečo?
Jednoduchou odpoveďou by mohlo byť, že nemám na výber. No je toho viac. Slovensko nehralo vo svetových dejinách veľkú úlohu, no vždy sa našiel niekto, kto upozornil na našu výnimočnosť. A preto si myslím, že dejiny Slovenska ani nie sú dejinami veľkých udalostí, ale veľkých ľudí. Ľudí, ktorí svojím talentom, činmi a odvahou predčili ostatných a vo svojej dobe boli svetovými.
Paradoxom je, že mená ľudí, ktorí ma pri práci na knihe AHA inšpirovali, nepoznám. Väčšinou ide o vidiecke ženy, ktoré svojou záľubou a talentom vyrazili svojej obci a okoliu jedinečný ráz prostredníctvom ľudovej výšivky.
Ľudová výšivka si stihla prejsť pestrou cestou. Od svojich začiatkov, kedy mala čisto praktickú funkciu, cez obdobia, keď zdobila každý odev a textíliu a bola odrazom určitého spoločenského statusu, až po obdobie, kedy sa stala symbolom slovenskej svojbytnosti a národnej identity. Tradičné výšivky, ktoré boli súčasťou odevu Slovákov niekoľko storočí, boli to najvzácnejšie, čo vlastnili.
Táto kniha je mojím poďakovaním tým, ktorí pred stáročiami nevedomky pracovali na vizuálnom dedičstve Slovákov a svojou prácou inšpirovali celé generácie. Mňa inšpirujú neustále a ich vynaliezavosť, pracovitosť a fantázia sú pre mňa dôvod, prečo som hrdý Slovák.
Kniha AHA Predstavuje ľudovú výšivku ôsmych krajov Slovenska. Unikátna publikácia zobrazuje slovenskú tradíciu optikou súčasného grafického dizajnu. Kniha oceňovaná doma aj v zahraničí teraz aj v limitovanej drevenej edícii.

It is a glorious encyclopedia from expert Judith Miller, a regular guest on the BBC's "Antiques Roadshow", showcasing more than 3,000 years of design.

Packed with tips on how to recognise the key elements of each period and featuring lavish, full-colour photographs throughout. With a special foreword by furniture designer and manufacturer David Linley.
Communication Design
The success of a piece of communication has always been dependent on the connection between content, form, audience and context - what the message is, who it's aimed at, what it looks like, and how and where it's communicated. In recent years the balance between these elements has shifted. This book bridges the gap between education and emerging practices to provide students and practitioners with the information they need to understand the new skillsets required to succeed in this changing communication environment. Organized into themes of brand, experience, conversation, participation, navigation, advocacy and critique, it explores the core ideas shaping contemporary practice. Alongside case studies of game changing projects, it uses analysis of historical context and interviews with key thinkers and practitioners to provide a relevant and contemporary guide to the creative employment landscape.
