Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 336 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | 'Bayley . . . tells the Habitat story with his customary polycultural panache . . . [Mavity is] good at conveying the experience of being in a room with Conran' Sunday TimesTerence Conran: a visionary and a myopic. A Francophile who could not speak French. A democratising idealist and a selfish hedonist. His was a life of contradictions, simultaneously a national figure and an enigma.A design entrepreneur and imaginative restaurateur, his influence is everywhere in modern Britain from where we live to what we eat. He made it his life's work to escape suburban mediocrity, and to help the rest of us escape too.An astonishing life, if not a contented one, Terence leapt from one idea to the next: he was a furniture manufacturer, a hotelier, an author, educator and patron. He married and separated from four women, fathered five children, made several enemies, antagonised countless shareholders, provided thousands, possibly millions, of column inches, and smoked over £1 million worth of cigars.Terence: The Man Who Invented Design is the definitive biography of this design legend, by two of his closest collaborators, Roger Mavity and Stephen Bayley. Frank, witty and revelatory, it tells Terence's story as it evolved, from before Habitat's humble chicken brick to Bibendum's sophisticated poulet de Bresse, via personal successes and corporate calamities, culminating in that peculiar temple to the religion he invented: The Design Museum.Providing an authentic and intimate insight into his life and legacy, Terence celebrates his genius and immeasurable impact on British life - and ensures his rightful status as national treasure. …

Descrizione dello Store

Seit über 30 Jahren handeln wir mit Büchern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter Bücher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen Bücher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderbücher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten Büchern oder Haushaltsauflösungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbestände von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die Möglichkeit, große Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbestände werden von uns professionell auf Qualitätsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgfältig für den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken Büchern ein zweites Leben.…
