About this title

Synopsis

The most complete survey available on the work of London-based Ron Arad (b.1951), one of the most successful and creative contemporary designers of his generation, is presented in the form of an extended conversation with the art critic Matthew Collings. Arad talks about his work, explains his projects and tells us the story of his amazing career.

The interview is extensively illustrated by more than 400 images detailing all the different aspects of Arad's work and world. The illustrations include not only his own projects but also reference images to help delineate his creative and versatile personality. Each project is showcased through new photographs by Tom Vack (one of the most famous photographers in the design field), drawings, sketches and models - all accompanied by the words of Arad's closest associates about the scope of his work and life.

Shipping Terms

Orders usually ship within 2 business days.

UK Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 2.2 lb, or 1 kg. If your book order is heavy or oversized, we may contact you to let you know extra shipping is required. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

European Orders: Shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. For European orders I have only quoted a price for air mail. Not all European countries have been added so your shipping may appear high. Please note that I will adjust the charge I make if this is the case and postage to Europe will be lower than the rest of the world. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

Other overseas orders: shipping costs are based on books weighing 800g. I will generally use whatever method is covered by the standard postage charge but if you specifically wish to have it sent surface or airmail or anything else please ask and I will amend the charge accordingly. Please only choose the cheaper surface mail option if you do not mind waiting - the suggested upper time limit for this form of delivery is 60 days and it can take that long - and sometimes a bit longer. If therefore you wish to receive the book in 2-3 weeks then please opt for the more expensive postage option which will guarantee airmail delivery. If you are buying a small paperback or another small book then the postage and packing will generally be reduced by �1.50 and I will reduce the charge before processing your order.

Books are usually wrapped in bubblewrap and then in cardboard. Please ask if you have any particular requirements.
