Bill, Form, Function, Beauty, Gestalt
In this wonderful collection of essays, virtuoso designer Max Bill (1908-1994) explores overlapping disciplinary boundaries to interrogate form, function and beauty and address some of the challenges of contemporary design.
A product of the Bauhaus at Dessau, Bill’s work encompassed architecture, painting, sculpture, industrial and graphic design, as well as education. What unites all of his work is a clarity and precision of expression. Through both his designs and his writings, Bill has long been a major figure of reference in the German-speaking world. This collection makes many of his key texts available in English for the first time.
