Synopsis

Electrical lighting design, just over a hundred years old, may reveal more about the possibilities of probing human creativity than almost any other artistic effort. As a starting point, we need little more for illuminating a space than a bare incandescent bulb, possibly a socket, some wiring and a source of energy. Where accomplished and talented professional designers go from there may well delight, surprise, amuse, educate or offend you. You will find fixtures in 50 Lights: Innovations in Design and Materials that incorporate a wide range of materials: paper, plastics, metals, wood, foam, seaweed and many others. The details of a group of cleverly conceived lights are presented through the use of hundreds of photographs, exploded diagrams and very few words. Mel Byars-teacher, lecturer and author of The Design Encyclopedia-has developed a simple, colorful graphic-design system especially for the Pro-Design Series.
