Deciphering Design Greatness
Whatever activity you’re about to undertake, you will benefit greatly if you take time to consider its design. Design is one key element that helps determine whether something will be successful. Since it’s usually the little things that help you think big, it might be good look at design on a relatively smaller and closer, more personal scale and then expand from there. In addition, learning from others is always worthwhile so we should examine some expert work. Here, then, are some titles I think are just right for these requirements.
Design is one key element that helps determine whether something will be successful.
If you’re in need of design inspiration, you should read the story of widely recognized interior and product designer Kelly Hoppen. Did you know that she got her start in design at the tender age of only sixteen? She was given the opportunity of designing a family friend's kitchen and the rest is history! In her book House of Hoppen: My World of Design we get a look into her illustrious history covering her career and

celebrating many of her highlights. It includes never-seen-before imagery ranging from personal photos and professional shots by highly acclaimed photographers to illustrations by contemporary artists and personal as well as professional correspondence plus a look at a few of her pet projects. Through these we see how her approach to design has evolved yet remained identifiable only to her, as evident in her key design themes and signatures like her favorite chair designs and wall treatments.
review
Take it from the experts! And I mean literally by getting a copy of Architects' Homes to see what the gurus themselves have done. It's normal to assume that the world's most reputable architects, who gained their fame with stunning creations for others' venues, have crafted equally if not superior designs for their own personal abodes. And this book is proof of that. It offers an understanding of architects’ relationships with their professional work and how they combine that with their own unique tastes, philosophies and interpretations of present-day trends to hatch ideas for their private residences. Architects' Homes, laden with stunning imagery, will give you an idea of how to translate your own style and ideologies into something you'll be very proud to call your own. You might also enjoy 100 Contemporary Houses for insight on how true architectural pros achieve such remarkable work. This title takes us around the globe to see 100 of the most intriguingly designed private residences of the past decade. Some of the big names in design whose work lies within this book are Tadao Ando, Shigeru Ban, Zaha Hadid, Herzog and De Meuron, Daniel Libeskind, Richard Meier, John Pawson, Alvaro Siza, UNStudio, and Peter Zumthor. Though a private residence may be considered a project of smaller scale, no architect is free from challenge as the home owner will have particular requirements and preferences that the architect will have to meet. Not only that, but the design will need to reflect the individual home owner’s personality. These 100 examples give a glimpse into how architects get the job done at this most basic and personal level of design. But why stop at just the past decade or just private residences? Another fantastic art title is Design: The Definitive Visual History which helps its readers discover the key movements in design over the last century and a half. It’s synonymous with a gorgeous catalogue of an unimaginable yet amazing number of things dating all the way back to the 1800s like furniture, toys, telephones, and cameras that shows us how the functionality and appearance of these seemingly every-day items have evolved due to the influence of design. The book also features the profiles of exemplary design figures including Philippe Starck, Alvar Aalto, and Frank Gehry. Anyone who loves or is intrigued by design will cherish this indisputable celebration of design. And in line with our theme of art I have just one more title I’d like to bring to your attention. Branding, Revealed: Way to Build a Stronger Brand Image explains how the ability to build a brand all comes down to zooming in on the right audience. This is something so obvious yet so easy to overlook. Through real case studies, the book sheds light on one of the underlying keys to beefing up your brand which is to create unforgettable logos, ads, sales promotion tools and more. How was that for an initial list of great art-related titles? There’s so much to be learned about design that you can apply to so many aspects of life and there are plenty more titles waiting for you at every Asia Book outlet. I’m convinced you’ll get more out of everything you do once you put these books’ lessons into practice! Happy reading!
