Questo titolo, rilegato in un elegante cofanetto,  riporta in vita un'opera dimenticata di grande conoscenza e rara bellezza che Jan Christiaan Sepp pubblicò nel 1776:  A Representation of Marble Types, attraverso 100 tavole riccamente colorate a mano, ha tracciato un elegante viaggio visivo attraverso 570 diversi tipi di marmo. 

In questo magico libro, l'ingegnere pop-up Gérard Lo Monaco da vita a otto opere d'arte di importanti surrealisti: Salvador Dalí, Victor Brauner, Jean Arp, Man Ray, Joseph Cornell, Dora Maar, René Magritte e André Breton. Brevi testi introducono ogni opera e il suo contesto storico, mentre le illustrazioni dipinte a mano conferiscono una nuova dimensione a questo periodo rivoluzionario nell'arte moderna. Prodotto in collaborazione con il Centre Pompidou, Pop-Up Surrealism celebra cento anni di surrealismo.

Cabana #23 è più che una rivista: è un vero e proprio inno all'artigianato! Con il debutto dell' Atlante dell’Artigianato, celebra oggetti unici e le mani straordinarie che li creano in tutto il mondo. Questa passione per il 'fatto a mano' viene condiviso con un partner d’eccezione: LVMH Métiers d'Art, che ogni giorno si impegna a tenere vive le tradizioni artigianali e chi le porta avanti. Questa volta, il viaggio ci porta in Giappone: dai laboratori di Kuroki, maestri tessitori ci regalano un denim di altissima qualità, che diventa protagonista delle nostre quattro nuove cover. Ogni copertina è serigrafata con i motivi coloratissimi e vibranti del pittore fauve Raoul Dufy, direttamente dagli archivi del Victoria & Albert Museum.

An elemental unit of design in the universe, the dot has an aesthetic appeal that is perhaps part instinctual and part referential as virtually everything found from the micro to the macro level is based on this simple form. Spare yet elegant, its use continues to appeal to designers as a motif with broad applications for a variety of disciplines from fashion, to graphics, typography and space design. Isolated or in a crowd, black and white or in color, indistinct or in sharp focus, the multiplicity of effects are endless. Spanning the globe, Dotted Visuals selects the most innovative work of recent years featuring the humble polka dot in the fields of art, design and fashion.

Following the success of Style Book: Fashionable Inspirations , this new volume offers a fresh take on the iconic patterns and prints that are renewed and recycled year after year, from the runways to street wear. Fashion editor Elizabeth Walker draws on eclectic influences from around the world: embroidered kimonos from Japan, batiks from Indonesia, paisley from India and France, animal prints, bold pop-art geometrics in black and white, bright kangas from Kenya, Hawaiian print hibiscus, or bold splashes of color combining Schiaparelli pink with tangerine and turquoise. From Grace Jones in a zebra print jumpsuit to a flapper’s scalloped swimsuit, or from Marc Jacobs in a Mickey Mouse t-shirt to Nicolas Cage in a snakeskin jacket, you can take your cue to liven up the gray workday commute in a jewel-toned ikat print or a jaunty African tribal fabric. The striped mariner’s pullover that looked great on Picasso is still in style, and hound’s-tooth checkered trousers will turn heads and add bounce to your stride. The images selected here―featuring both celebrities and more proletariat fashionistas ― spotlight the striking prints and patterns that add panache to any look.

Designers often look to earlier decades or generations for inspiration, borrowing motifs and palettes that are recognizable through their ability to elicit nostalgia. From the ever-popular 50s and 60s to the growing interest in the early years of the 20th century, this rejuvenated aesthetic can influence everything from fashion and hair (or beard styles) to housewares and furniture. New Retro focuses specifically on graphic designers that evoke bygone eras with their creative work. The first section showcases logo design and examines the ways in which designers are able to incorporate vintage typefaces and imagery to create new and innovative brand identities and logotypes. The second section presents highly skillful graphic output - from poster and print design to fashion, product, packaging design and more - that nods back while leaning forward.
