Contemporary Icelandic Design. Furniture, product design and architecture. Author Elísabet V. Ingvarsdóttir.
Published in connection with the traveling exhibition Icelandic Design 2009, organized by the Icelandic Design Centre, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology, the Ministry of Industry and the Aurora Design Fund.
Icelandic design has in just a few years transformed from a child of the elbow into a wishful thinking star. In the good years, Icelanders discovered that domestic design was one of the things that made them unique on a global scale. In times of difficulty, the wealth of ideas and creativity of Icelandic designers gave the nation a boost and helped it to perceive its roots and values. Icelandic Contemporary Design is the first book to provide an overview of the enormous growth that has occurred in the work of Icelandic designers in recent years. Here you can get to know better the people behind many of the most popular design products of today and have designed houses and interiors that everyone knows. The works selected give the most diverse picture of the work of Icelandic designers today, whether it is avalanche barriers in Siglufjörður or bar interiors in Hong Kong. (Bókatíðindi 2009).
