Add Tag | Summary: | Bangkok Design is the first book of its kind, exploring the acclaimed new furnishings from Thailand and the inspiration behind them. This book profiles 36 of the best Thai designers, showing how they translate their own culture and personal experiences into original products. This group explores a wide variety of styles-minimal, expressionist, modernist, neo-traditional, retro and pop-but each designer has an individual signature. The profiles include several studio artists whose work either has decorative characteristics or else comments on design-related issues such as cultural identity and sustainability. This inspiring book, beautifully photographed by Robert McLeod and lucidly written by award-winning author Brian Mertens, will appeal to interior designers, architects and collectors. |
