Cristal ou acier, bois ou obsidienne, étain ou argent, verre ou porcelaine, Thomas Bastide s'empare des matières pour les façonner en autant d'objets du quotidien qu'il transfigure, magnifie, rend uniques. Au fil des pages et des créations se dévoile dans ce livre, véritable ouvrage de transmission, l'univers foisonnant d'un designer d'exception, qui depuis quarante ans incarne une certaine idée du savoir-vivre à la française. Thomas Bastide is a master of materials-from crystal to steel, wood to obsidian, pewter to silver, and glass to porcelain-fashioning them into a panoply of articles, which he transfigures, embellishes, and renders unique to enhance our lives. Each work presented in this volume-a veritable homage to the transmission of his craft-takes readers inside the multifaceted world of an exceptional designer who, over forty years, has embodied the quintessence of French savoir vivre.
