Description

This is Dieter Rams's 808-page book about his work, back in print in its original form with a PVC softcover and slipcase. The relevance of famous Braun designer Dieter Rams in ­modern design remains unbroken.

In his more than 40 years at Braun, Rams established himself as one of the most influential designers of the twentieth century. True to the principle of "less but better" his elegantly clear visual language not only defined product design for generations, but also our fundamental understanding of what design is and what it can and should do. Less and More offers boundless inspiration for anyone interested in the aesthetic and functional aspects of applied design.

Endlich wieder erhältlich: das Referenzwerk zu Dieter Rams, der wie kein Zweiter das deutsche Produktdesign der Moderne prägte und zu globaler Wirkung brachte. Nach der Devise "weniger, aber besser" orientierte er sich immer an Sinn und Zweck und schuf damit auch ästhetisch neue Ma stäbe. In über 40-jähriger Tätigkeit bei Braun hat sich Dieter Rams als einer der wichtigsten Designer des 20. Jahrhunderts etabliert. Less and More: The Design Ethos of Dieter Rams dokumentiert sein Schaffen. Begegnungen mit Produkten und Gedanken von Dieter Rams werden zu Schlüsselerlebnissen für alle, die sich an ästhetischen wie funktionalen Aspekten gut gestalteter Gebrauchsgegenstände erfreuen. Seine klare, elegante visuelle Sprache hat für ganze Generationen das Verständnis davon, was Design ist und leisten kann, geformt. Berühmt wurde Dieter Rams auch mit seinen Thesen, heute so relevant wie damals: Gutes Design ist innovativ, verständlich, ästhetisch und macht ein Produkt brauchbar. Gutes Design ist unaufdringlich, ehrlich, langlebig, konsequent bis ins letzte Detail und umweltfreundlich. Gutes Design ist so wenig Design wie möglich. Less and More erfasst dieses Designverständnis: mit Hunderten von Produktabbildungen, Skizzen, Vorstufen und Modellen der weltberühmten Braun-Stereoanlagen und -Rasierapparate, der Möbelsysteme für Vitsoe. Dieter Rams' beispielloses Werk erfährt hier eine zeitgemä e Neubewertung; Texte internationaler Experten setzen die Arbeiten in aktuellen Bezug.
