The book takes as its starting point the fact of Nature and Mankind having seriously renewed their tryst. Not since the close of the 19th century has the desire for interaction with Nature been as powerful as it is today. A whole galaxy of Norwegian architects, many of them involved with the National Tourist Route Project, and designers are now cultivating this new interconnection between man and his landscape. Under the shadow of climate change and excessive consumption, a strong passion for originality and roots is now awakening. Design by Nature tells this exciting story from a Norwegian design perspective. The second part of the book covers design and architecture in present-day Norway.

hardcover. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.

Hardcover. Etat : New. One of today's strongest trends in design is the desire for a meaningful relationship with the natural world. A whole galaxy of Norwegian architects and designers are increasingly incorporating influences from nature into their work. Many have been inspired by Norway's forward thinking National Tourist Route project to put new energy into connecting humans and the landscape. This inspirational, extensively illustrated book looks at Norwegian design history, then features contemporary projects by some of the design-rich nation's most celebrated creators, including Siren Elise Wilhelmsen's landscape hotel in Juvet, ''Norwegian wood'' blankets from Roros, ''changeable textiles'' from Kristine Bjaadal and the history of Rottefella (mousetrap), the classic Norwegian ski binding.
