The work of Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas enjoys a well-earned reputation for the artistic talent it expresses and for its capacity to surprise with the most risky and spectacular projects. With offices in Rome, Paris and Shenzen, the Fuksases have completed projects of contrasting scales and typologies: airports, theatrical scenographies, urban planning, large infrastructure, housing projects... This companion book to Fuksas Building features works by the studio which are focused on product design, interior design, scenography, furniture and jewelry. Perhaps the less known aspect of Fuksas' work, their product design emphasizes a natural condition in changing scales, materials and uses. Research is also very present behind every piece. The richly illustrated projects include the Armani stores, the Alessi collection and the furniture for Haworth Castelli, among many others.

New in paperback, this is an in-depth survey of today's best design and art production using digital technology in creative and unexpected ways.

Paola Antonelli, of The Museum of Modern Art, New York, contributes a foreword and interviews with four of the brightest lights in the field: Dunne & Raby, Ron Arad, Steven Sacks and Mashiko Kusahara. No design professional will be able to ignore this innovative book.

Until spring 2020 the trade fair sector was still boasting: "You can't e-mail a handshake!" Then Covid-19 came along and everything was turned upside down: exhibitions were postponed, cancelled or relocated into digital space. It also brought forth new concepts with which we had not reckoned a couple of years ago: virtual twins, AR or VR walk-through stands, online exhibitions with new meeting formats, or quite different ideas that are currently turning the sector upside down, providing new impetuses and making the trade fair a place as we have never known it before. The new trade fair yearbook presents not only the most exciting exhibition settings of the previous year but also entices us into virtual space.

In the field of machine tools the considerable progress which has taken place in the last two decades, has been due to a large extent to the co-opera- tion between teaching, research and industry. The paper describes how this co-operation, extending far beyond national boundaries, has influenced design fundamentals as well as design practice for metal cutting machine tools, and how this has contributed to the develop- ment of machines which show better quantitative and qualitative perfor- mance with higher technical and economic efficiency. Resume Le progres dans Ie domaine des machines outils, qu'on a observe depuis vingt ans est dft a la collaboration de l'enseignement, de la recherche et de l'industrie. Dans cette communication on montre que cette collaboration, qui s'etend a travers les frontieres nationales, a influence les principes de dessin et l'exe- cution des machines outils. Elle a produit des machines de meilleure qualite et productivite avec un haut rendement economique et technique. Literatur [1] Nicolson, J.

Design is everywhere. It shapes not only our present but also our future. An essential introductory guide, Design: The Key Concepts covers fundamental design concepts: thinking, service, context, interaction, experience, and systems. Each concept is situated within a broad context, enabling the reader to understand design's contemporary practice and its relationship to issues such as new technology, social and economic development, globalization, and sustainability. Concepts are also explained by use of concise, illustrated case studies of contemporary objects, spaces, systems, and methods such as Uber, the iPhone, Kickstarter and IKEA. Chapter summaries and supporting discussion questions make this an engaging and accessible introduction for students and those new to the field. An annotated bibliography provides direction for further reading.

Fully revised and with a new chapter and international case studies, this second edition of the best-selling book traces how artists and designers continue to adapt and incorporate 3D printing technology into their work and explains how the creative industries are directly interfacing with this new technology. Covering a broad range of applied art practice - from fine art and furniture-design to film-making - Stephen Hoskins introduces some of his groundbreaking research from the Centre for Fine Print Research along with an updated history of 3D print technology, a new chapter on fashion and animation, and new case studies featuring artists working with metal, plastic, ceramic and other materials. A fascinating investigation into how the applied arts continue to adapt to new technologies and a forecast of what developments we might expect in the future, this book is essential reading for students, researchers studying contemporary art and design and professionals involved in the creative industries.

Die Neuauflage des dritten Bandes unseres Handbuches, dessen erste Auflage in verhaltnismassig kurzer Zeit vergriffen war, hat durch einige widrige Umstande eine ungewollte Verzoegerung erfahren, unter anderem durch langere Krankheit eines der Verfasser. Herr Baurat Dipl.-Ing. R. HAENcHEN ist wegen seines hohen Alters aus dem Kreis unserer Mitarbeiter ausgeschieden. An seine Stelle ist der Leiter der Schweiss- technischen Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt in Munchen, Herr Dr.-Ing. J. RUGE als Bearbeiter der Hauptabschnitte getreten. Die Weiterentwicklung der Schweisstechnik machte eine vollstandige UEber- arbeitung erforderlich. Der Inhalt wurde erweitert durch Aufnahme der Ab- schnitte uber Berechnen und Gestalten der Punktschweissverbindungen, uber das Schweissen im Fahrzeug-, Brucken- und Schiffbau. Neu aufgenommen wurde auch ein Abschnitt uber die Grundlagen des Leichtbaues. Unter Beruck- sichtigung der in der Zwischenzeit entwickelten Richtlinien und Normen wurden alle Abschnitte kritisch durchgesehen und neue Beispiele eingefugt. Tabellarische und graphische Darstellungen sollen das Berechnen geschweisster Konstruktions- elemente erleichtern. Aufgabe des vorliegenden Buches ist es, den jungen Ingenieur und den mit der Schweissbauweise noch wenig vertrauten Konstrukteur in das Berechnen und Entwerfen von Schweisskonstruktionen einzufuhren und ihm die Wege zu einem schweisstechnisch richtigen Denken zu ebnen. Dabei werden die Grundkennt- nisse im Schweissen und die Kenntnis der Arbeitsweise der Schweissverfahren vorausgesetzt. Der Abschnitt Berechnung der Schweisskonstruktionen enthalt die Grund- begriffe der statischen und dynamischen Beanspruchung, deren Verstandnis fur die Beurteilung des Festigkeitsverhaltens der 'Werkstoffe und fur die Durch- rechnung geschweisster Konstruktionselemente erforderlich ist.

A vibrant look at the celebrated artist and designer KAWS. This comprehensive monograph explores KAWS's art career in depth, from his early street art interventions to his recent send-ups of familiar cultural icons. With wit, irreverence, and even affection, KAWS takes infamous entertainment characters such as the Simpsons and the Smurfs and traps them in plastic blister packages while reinterpreting their appearance. The packaged "Kimpsons" and "Kurfs" are new types of hybrid artworks that both serve and criticize contemporary consumer culture. Also featured is KAWS's astute and prolific body of commercial work, including apparel from his Japanese store OriginalFake, a partnership with Medicom Toy, as well as product design, limited-edition toys, graphic designs; collaborations with architect Masamichi Katayama and artists Hajime Sorayama, Todd James, and Mark Dean Veca; collaborations with companies including Comme des Garcons, Levis, Lucas Films, The Simpsons, Nike, Supreme, and Marc Jacobs; and Japanese companies such as A Bathing Ape, Undercover, and Visvim.
