Dear Colleagues,
Apologies for cross posting, but you may find this useful.
I have just published a book, "Inspiring Designers", which features an insight into the minds of 18 of the world's most distinguished designers working today (e.g. Ron Arad, Shin and Tomoko Azumi, Rowan and Erwan Bouroullec, Marti Guixe, Thomas Heatherwick, Hella Jongerius, Karim Rashid, and Marcel Wanders et al).
"Inspiring Designers" presents personal narratives of each designer's cultural development providing a comprehensive overview of the iconic influences used in contemporary design practice. Each designer has been carefully selected, based on their current contribution to design, and interviewed in an effort to understand exactly what makes them a critical and marketable success. The importance of cultural frames of reference and influence, and sources of inspiration for designers is widely acknowledged and, thus, each interview centres on the influences and inspiration sources - designers, buildings, products, film, artists, authors, books, cars, music, magazines, newspapers, people - that these designers use to inform and drive their work. As such the book provides a unique and accessible contribution as to how inspiration works within and informs our modern world.
The publishers are offering the book for a limited time at £19.99 instead of the £24.95 cover price. Please refer to the email below for further details.
Regards,
Paul
