Description

A ground-breaking designer and architect, Alessandro Mendini was an influential figure in the Italian Radical and Postmodern movements. His work challenged traditional notions of function, exploring human sensibilities through an intellectual approach to design. Alessandro Mendini: Imagination Takes Command is the first comprehensive monograph on the groundbreaking work of the revered designer and architect.

Published by Phaidon, the book showcases Mendini’s multifaceted genius through well-known and previously unpublished images, artworks and documents. Penned by writer, designer, curator, and critic Stefano Casciani, a frequent collaborator and friend of Mendini, the book presents a more intimate view of the work and life of the renowned designer. Apart from furniture and product designs, readers can also discover personal photographs, ephemera and sketches. Finally, the book pays homage to the distinctive style of Alessandro Mendini with a pink cloth cover, an iconic magazine cover on the front, and a sketch of the acclaimed Proust armchair on the back.  A must-have for fans of Italian design.
