| webLongDescription |
Paper is generally presumed to be the stock-in-trade of the graphic design profession. However, due to the diverse qualities of paper, and the constant desire of designers to push the boundaries of their profession, its potential is being explored more and more by all disciplines of design. More Paperwork follows on from Paperwork, which looked at the use of paper in graphic design, and reviews the amazing developments in its application across all areas of design in the last ten years - including products, furniture, fashion and architecture. The interactive features of the first book have also been extended in the second, to create a range of special effects that are designed to be completed by the reader. Through the selected work of leading designers around the world, from Amsterdam to Tokyo and New York to Zagreb, this book sets out to demonstrate how the astounding and diverse qualities of paper can be applied. From an inspirational church by Shigeru Ban and a humorous airmail dress by Hussein Chalayan, to an intricate range of packaging by Pentagram and the Honey Pop chair by Tokujin Yoshioka, More Paperwork shows that paper can be used to create functional, exciting and innovative designs. Defying convention in more ways than one, this extraordinary sequel also includes items that are not necessarily chosen for the beauty of their design per se but, rather, because they demonstrate some of the astounding results of which paper is capable. However, these items still display an intrinsic beauty, which is demonstrated via beautiful photographs. |
