Home Futures: Living in Yesterday’s Tomorrow
Edited by Eszter Steierhoffer and Justin McGuirk
The ‘home of the future’ has long intrigued designers and popular culture alike. Whether it was the dream of the fully mechanised home or the notion that technology might liberate us from home altogether, the domestic realm was a site of endless invention and speculation. But what happened to those visions? Are today’s smart homes the future that architects and designers once predicted, or has our idea of home proved resistant to real change? This book explores today’s home through the prism of yesterday’s imagination. Organised in six thematic sections – privacy, the smart home, compact living, self-sufficiency, nomadic lifestyles and the home as an idyllic landscape – this book proposes that we are already living in yesterday’s tomorrow, just not in the way anyone predicted.
FEATURES A one-of-a-kind snapshot of the most exciting things happening in design today. A definitive record of the year in design, contextualised by a ‘Year in Review’ which surveys how design is tackling today’s most pressing issues, from gender discrimination to space exploration. Featuring written contributions from over fifty leading voices in design, including architectural photographer Iwan Baan, art curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and design critic Oliver Wainwright. The nominations span the fields of architecture, product, fashion, digital, transport and graphic design. Beautifully designed by celebrated graphic designer John Morgan – the first title in a redesigned series of colourful and collectible books.

Edited by Eszter Steierhoffer
Published at the centenary of the Russian Revolution, this book portrays Moscow as it was envisioned by a bold generation of architects in the 1920s and early 1930s. Through evocative imagery and a wealth of rarely seen material, this book provides a window into an idealistic fantasy of the Soviet capital that was never realised and has since been largely forgotten. Focusing on six unbuilt architectural landmarks, Imagine Moscow explores how these projects reflected changes in everyday life and society following the revolution, during one of the most fascinating periods of the twentieth century. Large-scale architectural plans, models and drawings are placed alongside propaganda posters, textiles and porcelain, contextualising the transformation of a city reborn as the new capital of the USSR and the international centre of socialism.
