Weight over 1.7kg. -- This monograph and retrospective study published by the Dutch specialist house nai010 is a comprehensive record of the first two decades of the studio founded by the Indian-born, Amsterdam-based industrial designer Satyendra Pakhalé. The book explores Pakhalé's unique design philosophy, which he terms the "Culture of Creation", blending traditional craftsmanship with high-tech industrial processes. It features contributions from notable critics and curators, including Paola Antonelli (MoMA) and Tiziana Casapietra, who analyse Pakhalé's ability to imbue industrial objects with "sensorial" qualities. The text delves into how his work bridges Eastern and Western cultural contexts, moving beyond the functionalism of modernism toward a more "poetic" and universal design language. Extensive visual sections document the evolution of iconic works, such as the BMW Series 7 Interior and the Bird Chair, showing the transition from initial sketches and handmade prototypes to final production. There is a specific focus on his innovative use of materials, ranging from ceramics and bronze to advanced plastics and textiles. The work is academically significant for contributing to the discourse on global design identities, illustrating how a designer can maintain a "singular voice" while working for major European manufacturers. Industrial vs. Artisanal: It serves as a key case study in design research for its exploration of the "craft-industrial" nexus, showing how traditional techniques can inform mass-produced objects. -- "Satyendra Pakhalé stands at the crossroads of the diverse currents shaping contemporary design. His design work is an act of unity going beyond any binary such as high and low tech, industrial production and traditional crafts, functionality and poetic significance, blurring boundaries of time and place. Satyendra Pakhalé: Culture of Creation, the first comprehensive monograph devoted to his work, explores the way that the designer navigates these currents on multiple levels. Twelve essays by leading design thinkers, Juhani Pallasmaa, Paola Antonelli, Jacques Barsac, René Spitz, Tiziana Proietti, Aric Chen and Stefano Marzano, illustrate the world view and intellectual position underpinning the designer's 'culture of creation'. Contributions from leading industry figures, such as Alberto Alessi, Giulio Cappellini, Cristiano Crosetta and Vittorio Livi portray him at work. Documentary passages give insight into his studio practice, close-up encounters with specific processes and stunning imagery complete a book that can be enjoyed on many levels: a portrait of a unique 'culture of creation'.".…
