About This Item
Milano: Skira, 1995. Text : English. 208 p.; ill.; 24 x 32,5 cm. 'Driadebook is the chronicle of a journey through the complexity and contradictions of Italian design in a period which witnessed the rapid decline of the First Modernity and the tumultuous rise of a new cultural condition. Focussing on the case study of a company of international standing, this book stands as a interpretation and analysis of over 25 years of design history which commenced in one of the crucial moments in the intellectual debate of the glorious years of 'global contestation'. Launched in 1968, the Driade venture became the centre of a multifarious investigation into some of the dominant themes of domestic living and the home in the light of the rise of the new decorative arts. Analysed in its most characteristic and significant aspects, the Driade concept of the fin de siècle home is re-examined in this organic anthology of essays by various authors. This is no company book, therefore, but rather a book about a company'. Very fine copy. First Edition. Soft Cover. Fine. Book.
