Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
What feeds the inspiration of the designer? Observation. In Jasper Morrison's collection of pictures, the icons of design history meet up with the unassuming objects of everyday life, and curious findings with the archetypes of modernism. Every picture tells a story and creates a new one in juxtaposition with its neighbour - without words, in the language of form. Morrison responds to the arbitrariness of form with simplicity and complexity, poetry and humour in a repertoire of compelling designs. "a world without words" is a school of seeing that addresses designers and consumers alike, who wish to explore the universe of goods. AUTHOR: Jasper Morrison, born 1959, lives and works in London and designs for international firms like Capellini, Vitra, Alias, Flos. SELLING POINTS: The Language of Form Everyday objects and intriguing juxtapositions of found images and archetypes of modernity leads toward a new dialogue The picture collection of Jasper Morrison 104 illustrations
