Язык: английский / English

While Harry Seidler is one of Australia’s most famous architects, little is known of his European-born contemporaries. The Other Moderns uncovers the work of Sydney’s forgotten émigré architects, interior designers, and furniture makers working from the 1930s to 1960s, and reveals their groundbreaking impact on modernist design. Highlighting the direct connections between Sydney and the European design centers of Vienna, Berlin, and Budapest, the book provides a new understanding of modernism. Profiling the work of architects like Henry Epstein and Hugo Stossel, along with Gerstl Furniture, The Other Moderns tells the story of the network of architects, designers, property developers, retailers, and photographers working together to bring a distinctly European style to mid-century Australia. Richly illustrated with rare photography, including stunning images from Austrian-born photographer Margaret Michaelis, and furniture from the collection of Hotel Hotel Canberra, the book explores the work of this unacknowledged group of style makers for the first time.

From Alexa Hampton, one of today’s greatest interior designers and owner of Mark Hampton LLC, comes a beautifully photographed memoir about her journey into design and the inspirations that shaped her iconic style. The anatomies of my chosen surrounding are rich with meaning, authentic and borrowed, and are a snapshot (or many snapshots) of a lifetime spent in the world of design. In her newest book, Alexa Hampton takes you on a journey through her life’s work: her beautifully appointed pre-war apartment on 59th street in Manhattan. She highlights the art, textiles, and objects in her spaces, along with the design and fashion tastemakers who inspired their use. In doing so, she acknowledges some of the big movements, auctions, and people that rocked the world of design and made an indelible mark on her. An intimate look into Alexa’s personal design process, including the countless updates and redecorations of her own home, this book is a personal history of interior design and a love letter to an iconic home.

Изучение китайской архитектуры идет вразрез с тенденциями времени. Китай, живущий в период бурных перемен, в последние годы устремлен в сторону Запада. Общество повсеместно уничтожает собственную архитектуру и сопутствующее ей искусство. Возвышавшиеся на протяжении нескольких сотен лет древние постройки, преисполненные художественным своеобразием и национальным колоритом торговые городские кварталы, несомненно, отражавшие культуру народа, нередко полностью уничтожаются под знаменем «усовершенствования».
