Yves Béhar: Designing Ideas

描述

A laptop for children in developing countries, the earliest objects in the internet of things, televisions concealed as art, robotic rooms for small spaces – Yves Béhar has redefined the role of the designer for the 21st century.

Blending social responsibility with entrepreneurship, a start-up sensibility with high-profile commissions, San Francisco–based Béhar and his studio fuseproject have altered the landscape of designed objects that fill our houses, sense our daily activities, improve disadvantaged lives, and enhance everyday experience. This is the first complete overview of his work, covering twenty productive years, with the stories of how each project evolved from a wide range of inspirations, rigorous research, personal connection and perfectionism to produce an unparalleled body of work that has touched the lives of millions.
