Product Description
Product Description
"& Fork" seeks to represent the best in international product design from around the world. In order to make the most comprehensive selection of 100 important young product designers working today, 10 key figures from the design world were enlisted to curate the project. These 10 writers, curators and designers have combined their extensive knowledge to ensure that "& Fork" truly represents this exciting field and its most innovative developments since its highly successful predecessor, Spoon, in 2002. Australia, the UK, South America, the Far East, USA and Europe are all represented and give the book a truly global perspective. With a short written piece provided by the curators for each designer we are given insight into why the designer's work has been chosen, and their background and future design plans. Each curator has also chosen one piece of design for the 'Good Design' chapter of the book. Here they have a chance to discuss one object by one designer that they believe has made a significant impact on the design world, and that young designers of today are still influenced by and can learn from.

inspiring overview of new young designers
10 Jun 2007
Format:Hardcover
This book is a very inspiring book on new designers all over the world. It gives every designer a few pages with different products and a short charactarization of his/her work. Innovative use of new materials, surprising products and beautiful photographs. The only thing I would love is more detailed drawings of products and/or constructions.

Love this book! BUT the second time I opened it the binding just broke in half.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have a very large collection of architecture and design books including Phaidon's ULTRA huge "Atlas Of Contemporary World Architecture" and never had any problems. I was very shocked at the the binding issue and contacted Phaidon directly. There was never a resolution or an answer if my book was an isolated quality issue. Disappointing.
