Description
Minimum Book John Pawson Vintage Hardcover Dust Jacket Cover Used
This work is an essay by the architect John Pawson, both expressing and embodying the ideas of reduction, of simplicity, of austerity, of repetition. The pages reveal stark but beautiful images of architecture and engineering, of ceramics and furniture, of photography and works of art, from many periods and cultures, that all combine to express the idea of simplicity.
An extraordinary visual essay, this volume explores the notion of “minimum”, a concept which is rooted in the pursuit of simplicity, as applied to architecture, art and design. This book captures the essential qualities of particular kinds of simplicity. It has six gatefolds and is printed in six colors and is an outstandingly beautiful object in its own right. 145 illustrations.
