Encore! The New Artisans: Handmade Designs for Contemporary Living

Description

'Craft' is no longer a trend; it is now an enshrined aspect of modern life. This sequel to Olivier Dupon's bestselling The New Artisans - the book that began it all - showcases 60 new makers whose creations will inspire and delight. The book is divided into two sections for ease of reference. The first profiles the artisans in easy-to-follow alphabetical order, while the second part consists of a directory of products, neatly divided into categories. Complete with an introduction, as well as the author's personal recommendations for inspiring shops, websites and blogs to visit, this is the perfect curated resource for discovering unique and beautiful pieces designed and made by talented artisans from around the world.

Olivier Dupon began his career at Christian Dior, then worked as a buyer and product manager before opening his own boutique. Based in Australia, he now scouts international markets in search of exciting new practitioners of design/art/craft.
