A history of the nightclub from the 1960s to the present day.
Nightclubs and discotheques are hotbeds of contemporary culture.
Throughout the 20th century, they have been centres of the
avant-garde that question the established codes of social life and
experiment with different realities, merging interior and furniture
design, graphics and art with sound, light, fashion and special
effects to create a modern Gesamtkunstwerk. Night Fever: A Design
History of Club Culture examines the history of the nightclub, with
examples ranging from Italian nightclubs of the 1960s that were
created by members of the Radical Design group to the legendary
Studio 54 in New York, Philippe Starck's Les Bains Douches in Paris
and the more recent Double Club in London, conceived by German
artist Carsten Hoeller for the Prada Foundation. Featuring films
and vintage photographs, posters and fashion, Night Fever takes the
reader on a fascinating journey through a world of glamour,
subculture and the search for the night that never ends.
