Description

The Beauty Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial showcases some of the most exciting and provocative design created around the globe during the past three years. This survey highlights transformational beauty in contemporary design, featuring sixty-two designers from various disciplines. The book features rich galleries of their work, accompanied by conversations with the curators about the designers' processes and the differing forms of beauty. The seven themes - Ethereal, Intricate, Extravagant, Transformative, Transgressive, Elemental and Emergent Beauty - provide a framework for understanding the diverse range of designs on display. Designed as a tactile and thought-provoking interpretation of beauty itself, this book invites readers to pause, catch their breath, and explore the world of contemporary design.
