Product Information
Ilse Crawford, one of the most influential interior and product designers working today, is known for her holistic design ethos, and it's application to our daily lifestyle. The most complete monograph of Crawford's work to date, this book looks at the work of her studio, StudioIlse, which bridges the worlds of interior design, architecture, product design, and brand creation, with the philosophy of putting the human being at the center. In addition to completed projects, A Frame for Life looks at her unbuilt projects, her curriculum as Head of the Dept of Man and Well Being at Eindhoven, and daily life at StudioIlse. The book is organized thematically according to the values espoused by StudioIlse, as these values motivate the studio's work on every project and provide her frame work for life. Each chapter has a thematic overview and a discussion between Ilse and Eddie, followed by 2-4 StudioIlse case studies/projects. Chapters include: Introduction: Design that Puts the Human Being at the Center; The Ongoing Story of a Place, and Design that Can Be Smelt, Heard, and Felt to name a few. Sidebars include: The Ones that Got Away; Family Lunch at the Studio; Extended Family- Our Friends and Relationships. New photography illustrates the beautiful and inspiring interiors, and is augmented by plans, drawings, and behind-the-scenes looks at StudioIlse's process.Product Identifiers
