Inspired by Nature
'This book is such a page-turner, I just want to fill my eyes up with more and more of the patina-filled rooms and Hans' styling.' Review of In the Mood for Colour, Jeska Hearne, Lobster & Swan blog.
In Hans Blomquist's new book Inspired by Nature, the stylist and art director identifies the connection between our home environment and our emotional wellbeing.
Celebrated art director and stylist Hans starts off by discussing the essential components of a well-loved home. Nature is at the heart of his decorating philosophy, and contact with the natural world has been linked to reduced stress levels and improved mood. Still lifes and displays of treasured pieces are key to his look, and Hans explains how to style vignettes that will add visual interest as well as a connection to our past. Using contrasting yet harmonious textures will engage our senses, while his favoured earthy palette creates a sense of calm and tranquillity just where we need it most. In the second part of the book, Homes, Hans takes us on a tour of real-life homes that possess a sense of comfort, contentment and beauty and will inspire the reader to create a home that offers a refuge from the wider world as well as the perfect place to welcome family and friends.

The Crap Hound Big Book Of Unhappiness
Are you unhappy? You're not alone. Unhappiness stalks us all, from that first painful slap in the delivery room to the final sorrow of a graveside service. Rather than attempt to alleviate or rise above life's trauma, the Crap Hound Big Book of Unhappiness instead enthusiastically catalogs popular culture's attempts to illustrate, channel, and finally exploit our anxieties. Editor Sean Tejaratchi arranges this monumental tome with an artful eye, documenting and teasing out the patterns in popular depictions of human suffering. Between a brief introduction and the end credits, The CrapHound Big Book of Unhappiness is pure vintage 20th Century imagery, carefully collected from old catalogs, advertising, obscure books, and found ephemera. Its emotionally painful mixture of social commentary and somewhat overindulgent graphic design is intended for education and reference only.
Postures - Body Language in Art
Examining the body language displayed in works of art is a whole new way of looking at art. The gestures portrayed can reflect the mores of a particular period in history, the customs of a certain culture or a fashion in artistic styles. Exploring these with masterful subtlety, celebrated artist and anthropologist Desmond Morris uncovers fascinating insights about changing social attitudes and conventions through history and around the world, finding surprising similarities as well as now rarely used gestures.
Morris selects a number of key gestures, such as the handshake, the pointed foot, or the glove-slap, and groups them by the message they are intended to convey, such as Greetings, Status and Threats. He discusses the previously unconsidered symbolism behind these. What is understood as a gang sign today may have borne a more enigmatic meaning for Botticelli. And what did Napoleon's hidden hand really mean? Postures: Body Language in Art uniquely combines the author's expertise in both art and social science, so that even the most familiar paintings are suddenly seen in a new light.
How Turner Painted
This authoritative visual guide to the artistic materials and painting techniques of J. M. W. Turner brings to life the skills of one of the world's greatest artists. Details of his watercolours and oil paintings, usually only available to small numbers of museum professionals, and an experienced artist's recreation of his core painting processes, combine with in-depth research into Turner's use of new materials to give unique insights into his creative processes.
How Turner Painted brings new research and understanding to the subject since the publication of the author's earlier book Turner's Painting Techniques (1993). Joyce Townsend, senior conservation scientist at Tate, which houses the majority of Turner's work and is a centre of expertise on the artist, has revisited, updated and continued the examination of his innovative use of materials and early adoption of new colours. Comparisons are drawn across oil painting and watercolour to illustrate how Turner built up an image, and what his numerous unfinished works can tell us about his working methods. With a foreword by art historian Nicola Moorby and a chapter contributed by artist Tony Smibert, the book will coincide with two major new exhibitions planned for 2020, at Tate Britain and at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in Tasmania.
John Galliano for Dior
As testified by the monumental success of the recent Dior retrospective curated by the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, 'Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams', which attracted over 700,000 visitors over its extended run, John Galliano's creations for the house of Dior have entered fashion history and are widely recognized as some of the most breathtaking and imaginative collections ever created. John Galliano for Dior is the first publication entirely dedicated to showcasing these unforgettable designs, which have become collectors' items and form a key chapter of the history of the house of Dior - 'the greatest house in the world', as Galliano stated when he was first placed at its helm. 'I see myself as a guardian of [Christian Dior's] spirit, a keeper of his dreams,' he added.
The book unfolds chronologically, revisiting the most iconic creations and revealing previously unseen behind-the-scenes moments that capture models, hairdressers, stylists, make-up artists and John Galliano himself at their most creative. Robert Fairer's stunning and high-energy photographs convey the drama, glamour and wild imagination that defined Galliano's Dior shows. A treasure trove of inspiration, they make this publication a must-have reference for fashion and photography lovers alike.
Farebné noty 2 - Vianočné koledy
Všetky piesne je možné zahrať na ôsmych tónoch - každá nota má svoju farbu. Koledy sú zoradené podľa náročnosti. Ak nemáte rovnako farebný xylofón, nalepíte si farebné samolepky na klavír, elektronické piano, harmoniku či kalimbu. (Samolepky sú súčasťou nôt, aj s maľovankou.) Hrajú podľa nich už 4-ročné deti, rodičia či starí rodičia, ktorí noty nepoznajú.
Každá pieseň je doplnená ilustráciou pre lepšie zapamätanie:
Poďme, bratia, do Betlehema,
Poďte všetci k nám,
Šťastie, zdravie,
Pásli ovce valasi,
Daj Boh šťastia,
Pásli pastieri,
Povedzte nám, pastierovia,
Keď tá jasná hviezda,
Do hory, do lesa, valasi,
Dobrá novina,
Dobre sa tu mávajte,
Jak si krásne Jezuliatko,
Veselé vianočné hody,
Už Ježiško zostupuje,
Tichá noc (hrá sa na viac ako 8 tónoch).

Andrej Barčík - Osou cez horizont / Axis Crossing the Horizon
Kroky Andreja Barčíka (1928-2004), výtvarne aj organizačne aktívnej osobnosti, neboli nesmelým balansovaním, ale zanechali v slovenskom umení nezmazateľnú stopu. Jeho meno je späté so Skupinou Mikuláša Galandu, v ktorej sa stretli názorovo nekonformní umelci s dobovými estetickými doktrínami. Barčík vytvoril jedinečnú výtvarnú techniku a zdokonaľoval ju s intuíciou vášnivého človeka a s vedomou taktikou konštruktívneho umelca. V zadaní priestoru naznačeného čiarou horizontu budoval z vypočítaných línií a kontrastov zátišia dobre známych kuchynských predmetov, lámp, fliaš, rukavíc a hracích kariet. Od polovice päťdesiatich rokov 20.storočia vznikali v jeho ateliéry premyslené kolážové konfigurácie bez popisných detailov, na ktorých dáva vyniknúť kontrastom a štruktúre papiera upraveného monotypiou. Okrem zátiší zobrazoval aj figúry a časť svojej tvorivej energie sústredil na skratkovité zachytenie čŕt ženskej postavy. V súlade so životnými skúsenosťami sa jeho dielo stalo dobre namierenou reflexiou v obraznej podobe terčov, ktoré sú osobným dramatickým mementom, ale aj komplexnejšou výtvarnou úvahou.
Ferdinand Hložník - Tvorba ako genéza vlastnej identity / Exploring Identity Through Art
Ferdinand Hložník (1921-2006) patrí k významným osobnostiam slovenského moderného umenia. Do výtvarného diania vstúpil v polovici štyridsiatich rokov minulého storočia. Už vtedy sa zapojil do aktivity progresívnej Skupiny 29.augusta. Vo svojej tvorbe sa venoval niekoľkým výtvarným druhom- maľbe, ilustrácii, kresbe a grafike. Jeho celoživotný prínos sa prejavil najmä v maľbe, a to tak v expresívno-dramatickom, ako aj racionálno-konštruktívnom zameraní. Vo vývoji sa dotkol abstraktného a nefiguratívneho pólu. V obraze organicky používal symbol, archetyp, znak či metaforu. Námetom jeho prác bola situácia človeka v jeho svete, rodná krajina i prostredie mesta. Mal množstvo výstav doma aj v zahraničí. Za svoje dielo získal viacero významných ocenení.
Fenomén Bauhaus
Tři renomovaní čeští autoři se v knize, jejímž prvotním impulzem bylo sté výročí založení Bauhausu, vypořádávají s fenoménem této německé moderní umělecké a průmyslové školy každý po svém a z různých perspektiv.
Populárnější formou se snaží přiblížit veřejnosti, studentům a pedagogům její příběh, a to nejen prostřednictvím hlavních protagonistů Bauhausu, ale také skrze prostředí české meziválečné avantgardy, která s touto školou udržovala intenzivní kontakt.
Přijměte pozvání k poutavému čtení doprovázenému nejen dobovými obrazovými materiály, fotografiemi a reprodukcemi, ale také ilustracemi od architekta Davida Vávry a komiksem, mapujícím události kolem Bauhausu.
All the Best Lines
Pithy put-downs, hard-boiled snarlings, words of love and regret... All the Best Lines presents 500 memorable movie quotes, embracing both one-liners ('My name is Pussy Galore') and slices of snappy dialogue from pictures as diverse as When Harry Met Sally and Pulp Fiction. Arranged under such timeless themes as Dreams, Friends, Libido and Memories, the quotes juxtapose films and stars from every era and every genre.
Dotted throughout the text are feature capsules focusing on themes and stories in the movies from Goldwynisms to Mae West, plus a generous scattering of cinema anecdotes, making the book both a joy to browse and an authoritative reference.
Lavishly illustrated with full-colour photographs, All the Best Lines will delight and entertain you in equal measure, reacquainting you with your favourite movies and introducing you to some forgotten classics.
Structured Lineages
Structured Lineages: Learning from Japanese Structural Design presents a selection of essays and roundtable discussions by internationally prominent structural engineers on the intertwined traditions of architecture and engineering in postwar Japan.
Originally delivered as talks at a symposium held at the Museum of Modern Art in 2016, on the occasion of the exhibition A Japanese Constellation: Toyo Ito, SANAA, and Beyond, the ten essays gathered in this volume offer insight into the collaborations between architects and structural engineers that engendered many of the most important buildings erected in Japan after 1945, with special focus on the work of Tange Kenzo, Kawaguchi Mamoru, Kimura Toshihiko, Matsui Gengo, Saitoh Masao, Sasaki Mutsuro and Tsuboi Yoshikatsu.
Charting a largely unexplored history in a manner at once scholarly and accessible, these conversations and essays--each accompanied by an expansive array of archival and contemporary photographs--illustrate how intimately the innovations of this collaborative tradition passed from one generation to the next. Some of Japan's most recognizable, globally influential designs are traced to their origins in a mentor's earlier experiments. The diverse backgrounds of the scholars and engineers who contributed to Structured Lineages inform the book's uniquely international perspective on the spirit of creativity and cooperation that arose in Japan in the latter half of the 20th century and persists in Japanese architectural practices to this day.
The Sartorialist. India
An intoxicating mix of color, pattern, and texture, The Sartorialist: India is a photographic tribute to the country's diversity and splendor. Famed American photographer and blogger Scott Schuman journeyed to India many times to capture its wildly idiosyncratic styles, whether on the streets, in markets, on the cricket fields, or at residences in cities like Delhi, Jaipur, Pushkar, and Mumbai.
Schuman's affinity for his subjects is evident, and he celebrates people of all ages and from all walks of life, from ravers, transgender subjects, wrestlers, surfers, grandfathers, and fashionistas to children and laborers. He also shines a light on the new India as much as on the time-honored. The casually chic layering of textiles, the enduring prevalence of traditional attire, and India's pure physical beauty all add up to a richly satisfying visual and cultural experience. The images are also illuminated by an introduction by the acclaimed fashion writer Bandana Tewari.
This vibrant monograph is Schuman's first for TASCHEN, and it showcases all the unique qualities that have brought him worldwide renown: a photojournalist's eye for a decisive moment, a humanist's sense of empathy, and a fashion aficionado's appreciation for design.
Christo and Jeanne-Claude
Part biography, part critical analysis, part catalogue, this updated edition brings back TASCHEN's best-selling Collector's Edition, designed by Christo himself. It spans Christo and Jeanne-Claude's entire work, from early drawings and family photos to plans for future projects.
Hundreds of photographs and drawings trace the couple's projects from the past 10 years, including The Floating Piers and The London Mastaba, as well as works in progress such as The Mastaba of Abu Dhabi and L'Arc de Triomphe Wrapped, Paris.
In addition to comprehensive photographic documentation by Wolfgang Volz and an updated introduction by Paul Goldberger, the book features a conversation between the artists and the author. It was the last conversation about their work that Jeanne-Claude had before her passing in 2009. The result is an eloquent homage to Jeanne-Claude and a celebration of the work of two artists whose imagination has affected the landscape of every continent.

Hi-Fi - The History of High-End Audio Design
A beyond-cool look at the world of high-end audio design for passionate collectors, obsessive audiophiles, and design fans
At a time when sales of vinyl records have hit a 25-year high, and analog technologies are providing the kind of extraordinary audio experiences that our increasingly digital world has started to remove, Hi-Fi is essential reading. This unique book explores just how, when, and why the world fell in love with the look, feel, and sound of top-of-the-line audio equipment. Hi-Fi traces this fascinating evolution from the 1950s to today (and tomorrow), taking readers right up to the current renaissance of all things analog and the emergence of cutting-edge designs for die-hard audiophiles.
Soft City
Imagine waking up to the gentle noises of the city, and moving through your day with complete confidence that you will get where you need to go quickly and efficiently. Soft City is about ease and comfort, where density has a human dimension, adapting to our ever-changing needs, nurturing relationships, and accommodating the pleasures of everyday life. How do we move from the current reality in most cites--separated uses and lengthy commutes in single-occupancy vehicles that drain human, environmental, and community resources--to support a soft city approach? In Soft City David Sim, partner and creative director at Gehl, shows how this is possible, presenting ideas and graphic examples from around the globe. He draws from his vast design experience to make a case for a dense and diverse built environment at a human scale, which he presents through a series of observations of older and newer places, and a range of simple built phenomena, some traditional and some totally new inventions.
Sim shows that increasing density is not enough. The soft city must consider the organization and layout of the built environment for more fluid movement and comfort, a diversity of building types, and thoughtful design to ensure a sustainable urban environment and society.
Soft City begins with the big ideas of happiness and quality of life, and then shows how they are tied to the way we live. The heart of the book is highly visual and shows the building blocks for neighborhoods: building types and their organization and orientation; how we can get along as we get around a city; and living with the weather. As every citizen deals with the reality of a changing climate, Soft City explores how the built environment can adapt and respond.
Soft City offers inspiration, ideas, and guidance for anyone interested in city building. Sim shows how to make any city more efficient, more livable, and better connected to the environment.
