Summary:
cube. It's one of nature's purest, most basic forms. We see cubes every day, usually made of elemental materials like sugar and ice. But what if the cube is something altogether more complicated? What happens when cubes are constructed of plywood and bamboo, foam and hay, chopped up telephone books and strands of chicken wire? Cube is a speculative investigation of this(...)

Summary:
cube. It's one of nature's purest, most basic forms. We see cubes every day, usually made of elemental materials like sugar and ice. But what if the cube is something altogether more complicated? What happens when cubes are constructed of plywood and bamboo, foam and hay, chopped up telephone books and strands of chicken wire? Cube is a speculative investigation of this primal shape, a tactile exploration of the imagination in which unexpected materials create surprisingly beautiful and intriguing objects. Imagine you're asked to create something interesting out of this simplest of forms using whatever materials you can find at hand. That's the design exercise architect David Morrow Guthrie gives his students each year at Rice University, and the results, over 50 of which are presented in this handy little block of a book, will inspire any designer who is looking for ideas and inspiration, whether from elemental forms or innovative ways of using materials.

Summary:
This illustrated book explores for the first time the breadth and depth of the work created from 1992 – 2002 by the Swiss artist Mayo Bucher (b. Zurich 1963). Bucher’s significantly abstract, geometrically inflected yet painterly art functions on a refreshing variety of levels. It leads into a complex, and at the same time smooth world of structures, colours, forms and signs. It addresses painting's productive relationship with design, architecture and music – a link that is central to Mayo Bucher's art. In recent years, his resonant imagery has appeared on the covers of ECM Records. "Open Sign" makes clear and profound statements about our compulsion both to construct and question meaning: about human consciousness and its endless quest for clarity of expression and understanding - and about our saving need for mystery. With essays by Ruedi Baur, designer and Dr. Michael Tucker, Professor in the Faculty of Arts & Architecture, University of Brighton.
