Bon Voyage: Designs for Travel
Published by Cooper-Hewitt Museum, Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Design, 1986
ISBN 10: 0910503508ISBN 13: 9780910503501
Book
Paperback. Condition: Good. A GOOD, clean, tight copy. PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white and full-color photography with accompanying descriptive captions. From the Foreword: "Travel is one of the inevitabilities of modern life. Whether we travel from home to work, on seasonal vacations, or even between earth and outer space, we all share the traveler's imperative: to move ourselves and whatever we carry efficiently, perhaps even comfortably, from one place to another. In the larger scheme of history, pilgrims, nomads, and emigrants share aspects of their experiences of travel with explorers, wanderers, and holiday-makers. From the insightful journals of classical authors to the weekly articles in the travel section of the Sunday newspaper, the literature of travel reflects the rich diversity of man's oddyseys, as well as the fantasies and fears, the joys and travails that all travelers face in common. One chapter in the history of travel has been strangely neglected, however-the ways in which objects have been designed to carry other objects while we travel. 'Bon Voyage: Designs for Travel' leads us on a guided tour of the necessities and the luxuries that have accompanied man on his journeys around the world. We are deeply grateful to Louis Vuitton for their sponsorship of this publication and its accompanying exhibition, 'Bon Voyage:Designs for Travel,' as well as for making available to us a number of distinguished pieces of luggage from their historical collection." 128 pages. GD4.

Seller: ART CONSULTING:SCANDINAVIA, Books on Art, Calabasas, CA, U.S.A.
Seller Rating:
The various component acts of design are performed along a continuum, which, as it happens, is the name of the organization featured in this opening exhibition. With offices in Boston, San Francisco, and Milan. Continuum draws its success from their unique interdisciplinary design process. As their name suggests, they carry out as many stages of design as possible, from inception through research and development, engineering, industrial and graphic design and packaging. In approaching any problem, the first thing Continuum does is to ôstep backö to provide perspective and eliminate any possibility of preconceptions or bias. Their unique approach is beautifully represented in this catalog with colorful thought-provoking images of their products accompanied by insightful essays on their design philosophy., English/ Danish, Year2000, Illust.
