V&A Contemporary: Brilliant: Lights and Lighting

- - Product Description: Light is a powerful source for design inspiration. From the mundane to the bizarre, the strictly functional to the wildly ostentatious, a panoply of objects has been created in response to the desire for artificial illumination. This first title in the V&A Contemporary series explores the exciting new range of lighting forms, fabrics and technologies, from the archetypal domestic lamp to innovations in lighted clothing. It features a range of internationally renowned designers, from Ron Arad to Karim Rashid. Covering products from the one-off to the mass-produced, it also charts the crossover in design practice, incorporating textiles, fashion and ceramics as well as product design and new technological developments. Designers have new opportunities as innovative products reach the market such as materials that pulse and glow, heat resistant fabrics and wireless and 'cool' light sources. Introducing some of the most innovative designers of contemporary lighting, this book shares their opinions and predictions of the phenomenon of light in the designed environment.
