Cornel Windlin

For the first time, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, considered to be among the best representatives of the dynamism and creativity of current design, unveil a private and substantial part of their day-to-day studio work: drawing.As art director Cornel Windlin states: 'This book is not meant to be either an exhaustive inventory nor a privileged selection of the designers' work. Put together from a volume of sketch books and drawings realized between 2004 and 2012, this book follows diverse criteria: that of reproducing a large number of personal drawings out of context of the designers' body of work.'Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec have worked together since 1998 for numerous manufacturers (Vitra, Cappellini, etc.), while maintaining an experimental limited edition activity with Galerie Kreo.Among their iconic pieces are the Disintegrated Kitchen (1997), the Spring Chair (2000), and, more recently, the Vegetal Chair (2009). They have also worked with Issey Miyake, Camper, and Kvadrat for the creation of architectural projects.Published on the occasion of several exhibitions of Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec's designs, including their retrospective at Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, 24 April – 1 September, 2013.
