Patricia Urquiola: Time to Make a Book, Hardback Book

Patricia Urquiola: Time to Make a Book Hardback

Edited by Silvia Robertazzi, Alessandro Valenti

Hardback

Description

The first monograph on the works of Patricia Urquiola, whose eclectic approach to product design and architecture has established her as one of the key figures in contemporary design. A superstar in the world of design, Patricia Urquiola’s portfolio of architectural projects and product designs is as diverse as it is intensely personal—from a house for Patrizia Moroso, to the interiors of boutique hotels, to industrial design, and with products that include chairs, watches, and cutlery.

Since the opening of her own design practice in Milan in 2001, Urquiola has taken on an ever-expanding number of projects, and has worked with all the great international design houses, including Moroso, De Padova, B&B Italia, Bisazza, Alessi, Driade, and Flos, to name a few.

Urquiola’s distinctive works straddle the boundary between architecture and design, the product of a rigorous, interdisciplinary education.

Her products and spaces have won her acclaim for combining a bold, passionate imagination with an innate practicality.

Drawing inspiration from historical precedent, her designs are often characterized by their clear lines and formal simplicity, and their irrepressible sensuality.

This inspiring book captures the fervid energy of Urquiola’s life and work, in an unprecedented and striking design object as innovative and intimate as her body of work.
