Tord Boontje by Martina Margetts (Author), Tord Boontje (Contributor)
One of the most original and innovative product and furniture designers working today, Boontje is an artist and a craftsman, and his lamps, chairs, fabric designs, paper products, and art installations have vaulted him into the top ranks of contemporary design culture. Featured in exhibitions at the Milan Furniture Fair, the Victoria and Albert Museum and Art Basel: Miami, the unique paper creations and furniture developed by Boontje have become global objects of desire. Lavishly illustrated the book is an art object in itself featuring a number of custom printing effects-stencils, perforated and die-cut pages, and textured and woven details-that capture the intricacy of Boontje’s approach to pattern-making” Cool
