[From Introduction p 7] This is the first general introduction to collapsibles - objects that, in one way or another, fold out for action and fold up for storage. "Collapsible" used as a noun is a neologism. This book is the first to use the word to refer to any object that is in some way collapsible, rather than to describe it in terms of that quality. Sometimes you need the word first before you can think about a thing in depth. The prime purpose of this book is to discuss a subject never thoroughly explored before. But beyond that, the aim is to inspire designers to create space-saving objects of great elegance and functionality. Mies van der Rohe's "less is more" and Dieter Rams's "less is better" have never been so true as they are today. The selection of objects illustrated in Collapsible is heavily biased towards ingenuity. Brilliant solutions have shamelessly been given priority over the satisfaction of commonplace needs, with no attempt at completeness. Collapsible is not a manual but an album for inspiration. Contents include: Introduction: A strategy for survival; Fold it: A category is born; Space saving; Change, mother of invention; Nature's own method; The function of collapsibility; The nons and the quasis; Mechanics: Classifying collapsibility; Stress; Folding; Creasing; Bellows; Assembling; Hinging; Rolling; Sliding; Nesting; Inflation; Fanning; Concertina; Furniture: Mobile functionality; Stools; Chairs; Beds, sofabeds and sofas; Tables; Storage furniture; Sources: Bibliography; Sources of photos; Index.…
