Présentation de l'éditeur :
Gio Ponti (Milano 1891-1979) was founder of 'Domus',
Europe's most influential architecture and design magazine. Artistic
director of Richard-Ginori, the ceramics manufacturer. Ponti's style was
dominated by an exultant sense of the aesthetic both in his objects and
his numerous buildings.
Published in the same style as the successful Minimum Architects series, the Minimum Designers
series includes books about the major figures in the field of design,
creators of objects that have become a part of our daily lives. The lamp
on our desk, the chair we are sitting on or the glasses we are wearing
have a genius behind to be discovered.
These volumes will
introduce in a practical manner the personalities and the works of the
world's major designers by way of an historical-critical introduction to
the work and life of each individual designer. An accurate selection of
the designer's most famous objects arranged in chronological order and a
critique of his or her work summarizing the most significant reviews
published in magazines and newspapers will complete the subject.
