Taschen的Domus Vol.I-XII 1928-1999,係將1928年至1999年近八百期的Domus雜誌做一次整理、篩選。Taschen的編輯從厚達二十萬頁的原始內容中以近乎考古學家的標準,嚴格挑選7000多頁,總計12巨冊。內容包含20000多張圖、具有歷史價值的廣告、重要篇章的英譯、每頁下方的註解,及文章索引。涵蓋了72年來的設計及建築風貌:從1928年創立時的裝飾藝術風格到晚現代風格,Domus Vol.I-XII 1928-1999本身就像一部設計編年史,是從事設計及建築工作者的必備參考書。
從創刊以來,Domus被公認是國際上對建築和設計最有影響力的雜誌。這不僅和創辦人Gio Ponti的才華有關,也和Domus幾乎每五年就更換一次主編的策略有關。Domus的主編很多皆是在國際上享有盛名的設計師,其中包括:Alessi的設計顧問Alessandro Mendini、首位在世時即以個人身分進入MoMA展出的設計師Mario Bellini。這樣亮眼的主編名單和五年一度的編輯班底轉換,使得Domus始終能維持足夠的動能推陳出新,引領潮流。
這次Taschen的編選除原始內容之外,便在每冊刊頭請來數位當時的編輯或是對Domus有特殊貢獻的人撰寫專文,介紹該時期的設計建築發展及Domus在這當中扮演的角色。此外,其中很多篇章更是首次有正式英譯,對不諳義大利文的讀者可一補遺珠之憾。
Highlights from the seminal architecture and design journal (1928-1999) For over seventy-five years, Domus has been hailed as the world's most influential architecture and design journal. Founded in 1928 by the great Milanese architect Gio Ponti, the magazine's central agenda has always remained that of creating a privileged insight into identifying the style of a particular age, from Art Deco, Modern Movement Functionalism and Postwar to Pop, Post-Modernism and Late Modern. Beautifully designed and comprehensively documented, Domus presents page after page of some of the most exciting design and architecture projects from around the world. TASCHEN's twelve-volume reprint features selected highlights from the years 1928 to 1999.
Reproducing the pages as they originally appeared, each volume is packed with articles that bring to light the incredible history of Modern design and architecture. A truly comprehensive lexicon of styles and movements, the volumes are accompanied by specially commissioned introductory texts that not only outline the history of the magazine but also describe what was happening in design and architecture during each era covered. These texts have been written by many of the magazine's renowned past editors, including Lisa Licitra Ponti, Mario Bellini, and Alessandro Mendini. The volumes have also been thoroughly indexed, allowing the reader easy access to key articles ?many of which have been translated into English for the first time. TASCHEN's Domus series is a major publishing achievement and an important must-have for all design and architecture teaching institutions, practicing architects, designers, students, and collectors.
