Offering a comprehensive overview of the minimalist trend & the influence it has had upon decoration & interior design. The projects chosen, although they cannot always be labelled as "100% minimalist," do clearly reflect the impact of this movement on architecture, art, fashion, & design. As the modern movement gradually began to fade out, minimalist art came into its own & then went on to become an unmistakable reference for the subsequent minimalist movement, as exemplified in architecture & decoration by the inspiring works of the modern masters Mies van der Rohe & Corb.

New Interior Design COLLIDOSCOPE Coates N.
With approximately 30 specially selected international designs. Each project selected is featured over a series of pages, the same project may crop up at various other points through book. The purpose of this is to draw comparisons between each project by letting them cross over into one another’s territory. Hence ‘Collidoscope’, the provisional title of the publication. As such, it should work both as a sourcebook with reference to current tendencies in design & to the ideas that underpin them.  L.K  UK2004 HB208pp $A100.00
