描述
The book Design Unplugged makes it clear that the analog hand sketch as a form of presentation in the digital age has long not come to an end, but has found a new quality. Thomas Feichtner, an internationally established designer based in Vienna, has rediscovered sketching as a central element of his design process. Sketches like memorabilia: vague, unadulterated and unfiltered. Over the years, designs were created that are connected by the pencil sketch as a visual brace.
His book contains no illustrations of finished works in the field of furniture and product design, but shows only pencil sketches, some unpublished, which preceded the products. They give an authentic insight into the daily work of the successful product designer. Design, not with the full orchestration of all digital possibilities, but “unplugged” – reduced to pencil and paper. Design Unplugged shows a personal design access that the products alone do not reveal.
