Summary:
This publication analyzes Lebanon’s unique situation—a convergence of economic and architectural reconstruction, social awareness and international development. It also testifies to the designers’ determination to take ownership of their destiny and image by presenting objects and forms that are simultaneously aware of their diverse heritage and are deeply rooted in a complex reality. Prior to the development of this exhibition and publication project, no extensive research has been undertaken on the history of design in Lebanon. This book aims to fill that gap, presenting the state of design based on extensive documentation. It is the first retrospective on design in Lebanon, from the 1920s until today, includes works by over 50 designers, uncovering this major design scene in the Middle-East.

Ouvrage collectif, sous la direction de Maurice Culot et Anne-Marie Pirlot. Privés de la commande des meubles de luxe (monopole de la France) et de la grande série (fief de l'Allemagne et de l'Autriche), les décorateurs belges modernistes de l'entre-deux-guerres se sont frayé une voie originale et expérimentale. Le livre évoque leur histoire au coeur d'une période d'intenses changements, marquée par la naissance des contreplaqués qui remédient aux effets dévastateurs du chauffage central sur le mobilier, l'engouement pour le bois malléable, l'apparition des meubles en tubes chromés, du mobilier à combinaisons, de l'éclairage indirect, le renouveau du tissage, du papier peint, des bibelots... C'est une véritable aventure artistique qui se dévoile au cours de ces pages abondamment illustrées, et rédigées par une équipe de spécialistes, à partir des collections exceptionnelles du Centre international pour la ville, l'architecture et le paysage, bientôt abritées par un nouveau musée de Bruxelles : le Kanal-Centre Pompidou.
