PICONE. Archivio Studio Picone Roma. A+M. 2013 94709 Giuseppe Picone (1926-2008) is a figure in the Italian design panorama worth discovering and difficult to define. Influenced by Nordic creativity, Marimekko in particular, he made significant contributions to the generation of what would later be defined as ÔMade in ItalyÕ. This book presents a rich and inspiring selection of his many playful creations, from the first ceramics to the numerous graphic motifs printed on fabric, not to mention hundreds of designs for leading Japanese companies. Presented in narrative fragments, this large-format, colourful book tells the story of PiconeÕs rise, the evolution of his craft, and details the inspirations and sources of his distinctive ethos and style. 278 pp. Cl.
