Published annually from 1906 until 1980, Decorative Art, The Studio
Yearbook was dedicated to the latest currents in architecture,
interiors, furniture, lighting, glassware, textiles, metalware, and
ceramics. Since the publications went out of print, the now
hard-to-find yearbooks have become highly prized by collectors and
dealers. This volume spotlights the futuristic, experimental
aesthetic of the 1970s. After the revolutions of the '60s, the
world of design and architecture became an increasingly exciting
and fast-moving hotbed of ideas, rife with vehemently opposing
schools and movements. In many ways it was a more extreme era for
design than the previous decade. Experimentalism was everywhere,
and many projects, thought not practical, were forward-thinking
visions of a new kind of decorative art and design. Various groups
advocated returning to natural methods, rejecting style in favor of
craft or pushing the logic of industrial living to its concrete,
high-rise extreme. Decorative Art 1970s includes the work of the
decade's brightest stars, such as Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Luigi
Colani, Achille Castiglioni, Kisho Kurokawa, Norman Foster, Richard
Meier, and Theo Crosby.
