Is less really more? In reaction to the reign of Minimalism, designers, artists, and architects are rediscovering the power of patterns and embracing d�cors once rejected as superfluous, by covering lamps, chairs, rooms or entire fa�ades with stripes, polka dots and ornamental designs.
This definitive overview is the book that launched the new trend in publications about patterns. Using examples of contemporary work by internationally renowned designers such as Fabio Novembre, Claesson Koivisto Rune and Karim Rashid, by architects such as Herzog & de Meuron, Steven Holl and Sauerbruch Hutton, and artists such as Bridget Riley and Gerhard Richter, it lays out a kaleidoscope of colours and forms before the reader. Multidisciplinary approaches and applications, and new interpretations of traditional motifs are illustrated, as well as the impact and influence of technical innovations such as laser engraving and digital milling on the creation and realization of patterns today.

Von wegen, weniger ist mehr. Endlich haben Designer, K�nstler und Architekten die suggestive Wirkung von Mustern wiederentdeckt. Sie huldigen nun dem einst zum �berfl�ssigen degradierten Dekor, indem sie Lampen, St�hle oder ganze R�ume mit Streifen, Punkten oder Tarnmustern �berziehen. Viele interpretieren, wie die in Rotterdam ans�ssigen Gestalter Jurgen Bey und Hella Jongerius, traditionsreiche Motive neu. Das Buch stellt gattungs�bergreifend verschiedene Zugriffe auf Muster vor und zeigt, welche Funktionen Dekore �bernehmen k�nnen. Anhand von aktuellen Beispielen werden die vielf�ltigen Farben, Formen und Anwendungen vor den Augen der Leser ausgebreitet. Dabei wird sichtbar, dass das Muster den gegenw�rtigen technischen M�glichkeiten entspricht und den heutigen Wahrnehmungsbedingungen entgegenkommt. Die Arbeiten von international renommierten Gestaltern wie Tord Boontje, Michael Lin, Olaf Nicolai und Sauerbruch & Hutton werden in alphabethischer Reihenfolge vorgestellt.
