Light is a powerful source for design inspiration. From the mundane to the bizarre, the strictly functional to the wildly ostentatious, a panoply of objects has been created in response to the desire for artificial illumination. This first title in the V&A Contemporary series explores the exciting new range of lighting forms, fabrics and technologies, from the archetypal domestic lamp to innovations in lighted clothing. It features a range of internationally renowned designers, from Ron Arad to Karim Rashid. 128 Seiten/pages, Sprache/language: english, 25,- Euro
