Krátky popis
A multiauthored portrait of the Swiss open-air museum documenting
centuries of historic homes and the enchanting details of
vernacular architecture Founded in 1978, Ballenberg is a legendary
Swiss open-air architectural museum that gathers more than 100
residential and agricultural buildings from the 14th to the 19th
centuries, from almost all of the cantons of Switzerland, which
have been transported to the museum from their original sites.
Together these buildings show how architecture, furnishings and
tools expressed the needs of everyday life in their design and
execution. Traditional handicrafts such as basket-weaving, forging,
braiding, spinning, weaving and carving are also kept alive in
Ballenberg's on-site workshops.Edited by Rolf Fehlbaum,
entrepreneur and long-time driving force behind Vitra, this
beautiful publication is an invitation to discover and explore the
world of things with fresh eyes. A Way of Life compiles
photographs, observations and discoveries made at Ballenberg by the
acclaimed designers Jasper Morrison and David Saik and the
architect Tsuyoshi Tane, who all share a fascination with the
simple, the practical and the functionally beautiful. In concise,
elegant writing, Morrison, Saik and Tane comment on the design
ingenuities in various features of the buildings. The book's superb
photography celebrates the traces of wear and tear on door handles,
benches, columns, brick tile floors and other architectural details
that testify to a bygone ethos of enduring utility and economic
common sense. A Way of Life serves as an encouragement to designers
and consumers alike to resist trends and fads, and to critically
evaluate the objects of everyday use in terms of utility and
aesthetics.
