Résumé:
Using New York as an example, the photographic project "EndCommercial" deals with the urban space, dissecting it into its semantic components. Picture for picture, photograph for photograph, the inner grammar of the urban context reveals itself. Collected in and on the streets, the principles of order and life signs of biotopes at the bottom end of the economic process are documented: writings on the wall, signs on the street, codes, symbols, fragments, authorship of the anonymous, wear and tear of the public living space and the people who use it. The surprise the book holds is the sudden perception of what has frequently been seen but seldom registered.

Résumé:
German designer Konstantin Grcic, winner of the Compasso d`Oro (Milan, 2001) among other awards, is a figure in the international scene. He has received numerous commissions from such prestigious names in the design industry as Authentics, Flos, iittala, Krups, Magis and Muji. From his initial training as a cabinet-maker, Grcic retains the hands-on approach and sensitivity to materials of a craftsman. His foray into contemporary design at the Royal College of Art in London, added a new dimension to his fascination with making things. As a result, every one of his products is informed by his research into the history of design and architecture, and a passion for technology. The book presents the work of KGID, show-casing a remarkable portfolio and offering an insight into the design process through the various stages of a product's development. Conceived by Florian Böhm and Konstantin Grcic, and illustrated with sketches, computer renderings and photographs.
