A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Dave Bramston is a British designer and Associate Professor of Design, at the School of Architecture and Design, China University of Mining and Technology. A former leader of undergraduate and postgraduate design programmes in the UK, Bramston engages in idea generation practice at CUMT, and at the associated Muse Atelier Xuzhou studio, with a particular focus on creative curiosity and the exploration of abandoned or rejected materials.
Bramston has created multiple collections using unexpected materials through a process of play, experimentation and adopting an alternative mindset. Works have included knitted clothing collections using factory surplus facemask string, in addition to old Chinese school uniforms becoming lighting solutions. Factory surplus ceramics have been utilised to generate the sounds of traditional musical instruments and Chinese street stools have been transformed to amplify sound. Bramston considers that all materials have endless possibilities and that the materials that are often overlooked in society have so much to offer at all levels.
The outputs generated in the Xuzhou studios are multidisciplinary including fashion, ceramics, industrial, interactive and print. The cross-pollination of disciplines is fundamental to the creative approach and the challenging of conventional boundaries.
Bramston graduated from Wolverhampton Polytechnic and Manchester Polytechnic in the UK prior to working in London based design studios designing for companies such as Christian Dior, Reebok, Swatch and Motorola. Previous books for AVA Bloomsbury have included Idea Generation, Material Thoughts, Visual Conversations, and Idea Searching for Design which are all published in multiple languages

YeLi is an Associate Professor in Graphic Design at the School of Art & Design at the Chinese University of Mining & Technology, Xuzhou, P.R. China.
