Design in steel - Tapa blanda

Showcasing more than 100 high-design products from around the world, this book celebrates contemporary design in steel. Organized alphabetically by designer or manufacturer, and featuring work by well known and lesser known names alike, the volume is as much a survey of design thinking as it is a book about steel. Products include furniture, kitchenware, tableware, bathroom fittings, lighting, desk accessories and textiles. Full technical details as well as personal comments from the designers themselves accompany colour photographs of each product.

Mel Byars is the author of numerous books on design, notably On/Off: New Electronic Products and the highly successful series of six volumes which included 50 Chairs, 50 Lights and 50 Products. He has taught design history at the Pratt Institute in New York and has contributed to periodicals including Blueprint, I.D. and Metropolitan Home.
