What does it mean to live in a material world, and how do materials of the past and present hold the keys to our future? This book tackles these questions by focusing on various issues that human beings face and by discussing potential materials-related solutions. Through the lens of intriguing projects by designers, artists, makers, and scientists, it presents a colorful panoply of ideas, technologies, and creative efforts that focus on the earth's most basic elements, while also showing how these elements can be transformed into entirely new materials. It explores, for example, how ancient practices such as dyeing fabric and making glue may hold the secret to renewable and earth-friendly consumer products, as well as how recycling plastics can tackle food waste, and how a type of light metal being developed may one day make air travel less fuel-reliant. This book also investigates the potential of the digital experience, suggesting how this most ephemeral type of matter can be used to improve our world. Eye-catching and provocative, Why Materials Matter serves as both a stimulating catalog of possibilities and a timely manifesto on how to consume, manufacture, and design for a better future.Prestel240 pagesISBN 978379138471985,000 KRWWhy Materials Matter - Responsible Design for a Better World85,000 KRW08Donald Judd InterviewsDonald Judd, Caitlin MurrayA companion volume to Donald Judd Writings, gathering sixty interviews with the artist spanning four decades—the first compilation of its kind—offering Judd's own candid, often combative account of his art, materials, and ideas about space.David Zwirner1008 pagesISBN 978164423016961,600 KRWDonald Judd Interviews61,600 KRW09FuturLibertyEster Coen, Richard Cork, Federico Forquet, Gianfranco Maraniello, Tommaso SacchiA history of Liberty of London's textile archive, tracing how the radical experiments of early twentieth-century avant-garde movements—from the Vienna Secession to Futurism—filtered into the house's celebrated prints, shaping a design language still in circulation today.Thames & HudsonISBN 978050002671785,500 KRWFuturLiberty85,500 KRW10Chris KillipKen Grant, Tracy MarshallA career-spanning survey of Chris Killip's photography, published alongside a major exhibition at The Photographers' Gallery, London.
