Description
Limited Edition is the new buzzword in furniture design. The demand for unique pieces is steadily increasing. With prototypes, one-of-a-kind items, and limited product lines, designers are celebrating a cult of individuality for all price classes. Furniture prototypes have always been an element of the industrial design process, but now they are being hauled from the workshops and presented to the public as embodiments of the very latest trend.
In the global village with its standardised commodities, exclusive one-offs with an artisanal flavour are turning into coveted objects. Limited furniture series satisfy the collectors thirst for objects that dissolve the boundary between art and design as objects that are both furniture and sculptures and have thus given rise to a new elite among design gallery owners.
Limited Edition pursues this new trend in furniture design and uncovers its background in meticulous investigative essays based on the authors ongoing interchange with designers, gallery owners, and manufacturers. With magnificent illustrations and an attractive layout, it presents the best and most breathtaking pieces by the leading designers.
