Abstract

Bringing together fourteen original essays, this collection opens up new perspectives on the architectural history of the nineteenth century by examining the buildings of the period through the lens of 'experience'. With a focus on the experience of the ordinary building user – rather than simply on the intentions of the designer – the book shows that new and important insights can be brought to our understanding of Victorian architecture.

Abstract

De Weense architect en ?allround designer? Josef Hoffmann (1870?1956) is zoveel meer dan de oprichter van de Wiener Werkstätte. Dit boek biedt een brede blik op zijn oeuvre dat zich ontwikkelde over maar liefst zestig jaar. De tijdloze schoonheid van Hoffmanns creaties toont niet enkel zijn belang als historische figuur, maar ook als bron van inspiratie voor meerdere generaties.Rijkelijk geïllustreerd met meubelstukken, voorwerpen, ontwerpen, textielstukken, foto?s, tekeningen en documenten. Speciale aandacht gaat naar zijn creatieve werkwijze en zijn miskend kleurgebruik.Deze monografie verschijnt naar aanleiding van de tentoonstelling Josef Hoffmann ? In de ban van schoonheid, die van 6 oktober 2023 tot 14 april 2024 plaatsvindt in het Brusselse Museum Kunst & Geschiedenis. Het project kwam tot stand in samenwerking met het Museum für angewandte Kunst (MAK) in Wenen en is een van de blikvangers in het Art Nouveau Jaar 2023 in Brussel.

Abstract

The book explores the historical connections between the notions of architectural interior, subjective space, human interiority, and represented space including virtual space. In the 18th century the notion of "interiority" understood as a paradigm of human subjectivity came to be articulated in a sustained way in architectural and visual, rather than only literary forms. While the notion of the interior and the processes of "interiorization" were, as Walter Benjamin demonstrated, the defining features of 19th-century bourgeois culture, it is the different forms of conceptual assault on, or deconstruction of interiority that define the approach to space and self in the 20th and 21st centuries. The book examines models of understanding "interiority" as these were developed in relation to notions of space and spatial experience. Veranschaulichungsformen von Innerlichkeit finden in der Moderne in Darstellungen des Interieurs ihr prägnantes Bild. Die Beiträger der Publikation untersuchen die Verbindungen zwischen architektonischen Innenräumen, visuellen und literarischen Darstellungen von Interieurs und dem Konzept der Innerlichkeit vom 18. Jahrhundert bis heute.Jene Darstellungen sind Effekt, aber auch Produzenten spezifischer Vorstellungen von Innerlichkeit als einer, wenn nicht der subjektkonstituierenden Praxis der Moderne.

Abstract

Christophe Gevers, the eponymous monograph devoted to the creative universe of Christophe Gevers, offers a unique look at the known and lesser-known worlds of one of the greatest interior designers and Belgian furniture creators of the second half of the twentieth century. The book, which brings Christophe Gevers out of the shadows, is divided into five main sections: Houses; The master and his students; Interiors; The restaurants; The designer —furniture, lighting and objects. The texts are essentially based on testimonies from relatives, clients, professionals, collaborators and former students. From 1959 to 1993 Christophe Gevers left indeed his atypical mark on thirty-three classes at the famous La Cambre art school, within the Mobilier & Agencement workshop. A brutalist before his time, Gevers was uncompromising about the quality of the materials he chose so that they would last and embellish over time.

Abstract

Cars, single-family houses, fallout shelters, air-conditioned malls-these are only some of the many interiors making up the landscape of American suburbia. Indoor America explores the history of suburbanization through the emergence of such spaces in the postwar years, examining their design, use, and representation. By drawing on a wealth of examples ranging from the built environment to popular culture and film, Andrea Vesentini shows how suburban interiors were devised as a continuous cultural landscape of interconnected and self-sufficient escape capsules. The relocation of most everyday practices into indoor spaces has often been overlooked by suburban historiography; Indoor America uncovers this latent history and contrasts it with the dominant reading of suburbanization as pursuit of open space. Americans did not just flee the city by getting out of it-they did so also by getting inside. Vesentini chronicles this inner-directed flight by describing three separate stages. The encapsulation of the automobile fostered the nuclear segregation of the family from the social fabric and served as a blueprint for all other interiors. Introverted design increasingly turned the focus of the house inward. Finally, through interiorization, the exterior was incorporated into the all-encompassing interior landscape of enclosed malls and projects for indoor cities. In a journey that features tailfin cars and World's Fair model homes, Richard Neutra's glass walls and sitcom picture windows, Victor Gruen's Southdale Center and the Minnesota Experimental City, Indoor America takes the reader into the heart and viscera of America's urban sprawl.

Abstract

Flow combines cutting-edge scholarship with practitioner perspectives to address the concept of 'flow' and how it connects interiors, landscapes and buildings, expanding on traditional notions of architectural prominence. Contributors explore the transitional and intermediary relationships between inside/outside. Through a range of case studies, authors extend the notion of flow beyond the western industrialised world and embrace a wider geography while engaging with the specificity of climate and place. Accompanied by stunning colour illustration and photography, Flow brings together historical, theoretical and practice-based approaches to consider themes of nature, mobility, continuity and frames.

Abstract

Our homes are an expression of how we want to live; they shape our everyday routines and fundamentally affect our well-being. Interior design for the home sustains a giant global industry and feeds an entire branch of the media. However, the question of dwelling, or how to live, is found increasingly to be lacking in serious discourse. This book sets out to review the interior design of our homes. It discusses 20 iconic residential interiors from the present back to the 1920s, by architects and designers such as Assemble, Arno Brandlhuber, Lina Bo Bardi, and Josef Frank and by artists such as Cecil Beaton and Andy Warhol. Including historic and recent photographs, drawings and plans, the book explores these case studies as key moments in the history of the modern interior. Penny Sparke provides a concise history of the discipline of interior design, Alice Rawsthorn investigates the role of gender, and Mark Taylor discusses the discourse on interior design in the twenty-first century. Adam Štěch offers insights into the use of colour in residential interiors and Matteo Pirola offers a detailed and richly illustrated chronology of significant events in the history of interior design. In a portfolio of photographs selected exclusively for this book, Jasper Morrison explores what makes a good interior. In addition to inter-views with contemporary interior design practitioners, experts in the fields of the sociology of living and psychology provide further insight. This book a valuable resource for anyone interested in interior design. Exhibition: Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein, Germany (08.02.2020-23.08.2020).
