Shiro Kuramata
Hardback
This highly acclaimed, first ever monograph on the highly influential Japanese designer Shiro Kuramata (1934 1991) is a two-volume title presenting all his compelling and idiosyncratic work in a stunning, specially designed acrylic slipcase. Designers and design enthusiasts who love Kuramata will be astonished by the breadth and depth of Kuramata s remarkable body of work, from the iconic Miss Blanche chair, made from artificial flowers and resin, to his idiocyncratic umbrella stand that incorporates a walking stick into its design, and the armchair How High the Moon, which is made from metal mesh, many of which are still in production today.
