Design Origin: France

In an increasingly globalised world, some designs still stand out with unparalleled magnificence. This characteristic quality originates in an integrated approach that matches cultural understanding to modern problems. From the choice of materials to the perfect union of modern and traditional crafts, these solutions salute the creators’ origin and abode, projecting a refreshing standpoint that appeals curious eyes in a monotonous modern culture. With a notion to compare the diverse visual landscapes of different cultures, Design Origin is a brand new design reference collection that examines the creative works of one country at a time. As the debut edition, Design Origin: France explores the French nation’s contemporary design that remarkably informs the country’s traditional emphasis on arts and crafts. The title profiles more than 40 prolific creatives who relentlessly produce stunning work for local and international clients from the fields of music, fashion, sports, architecture and publishing. Through short interviews and a carefully edited showcase, the book illustrates the unique vision and creative universe of established and emerging talents from different generations as they share their thoughts and give insight into France’s design scene next to an astounding breadth of brand identities, communications, packaging, editorials, illustrations, photography and artistic set designs authentically crafted on French soil. — 出版：Victionary 頁數：256頁 尺寸：185 x 250 mm 規格：平裝 色彩：全彩色印刷 語言：英文 書號：ISBN 978-988-13204-4-5 出版地：香港 — 作為一間位於亞洲樞紐的跨媒體設計工作室，viction:ary希望以書籍設計連接世界。從平面、時尚、建築到產品設計，viction:ary一直以創新的角度，深入探索每個專業範疇；配合嚴謹的印刷技術以及精緻的書籍設計，使每個原創作品均得以展現其無窮的創意，得到了全球設計界的認可。近年來viction:ary團隊不斷發展和突破，涉獵更廣泛的題材，包括藝術插畫、旅遊指南、兒童讀本及桌上遊戲等等，為大眾提供源源不絕的美學靈感，推動及啟發各地設計師及行外讀者的創作發展。
