Italian Living Design: Three Decades of Interiors
Located in Tivoli, NY
Italian Living Design: Three Decades of Interiors by Giuseppe Raimondi. Interiors photographed by Carla De Benedetti. Originally published in Italian under the title Abitare Italia by Gruppo Editoriale Fabbri. First published in the UK in 1990 by Tauris Parke Books.
Late twentieth-century design and Italy are almost synonymous - Milan has become the design capital of Europe and Italian styles have been hugely influential. This book examines Italian designs for the home during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, concentrating on the stunning interiors which they have created. Each decade is introduced with an outline of the trends in industrial design, fashion, cinema, and television, placing them in the context of Italian politics and society, and of manufacturing and marketing developments. Thus clear connections are made between Italian culture as a whole and designs for living, which are extensively illustrated by the book's beautiful photographs.
The fine design projects of Franco Albini, Vittorio Gregotti, Gae Aulenti and Ettore Sottsass are among the many which are highlighted and assessed. Furniture, lighting, domestic appliances and kitchen and bathroom units...
