A World Without Words

What feeds the inspiration of the designer? Observation. In Jasper Morrison's collection of pictures, the icons of design history meet up with the unassuming projects of everyday life, and curious findings with the archetypes of modernism. Every picture tells a story nad creates a new one in juxtaposition with its neighbour - without words, in the language of form. Morrison responds to the arbitrariness of form with simplicity and complexity, poetry and humour in a repetoire of compelling designs "a world without words" is a school of seeing that addresses designers and consumers alike, who wish to explore the universe of goods.

Jasper Morrison ( *1959 ) studied at the Kingston Polytechnic Design School and the Royal College of Art in London. He works as a designer between London, Paris, and Tokyo. His designs are produced by leading manufacturers of furniture, lighting, electronics, shoes, and more. He has published a number of books, including A World Without Words, Super Normal, Everything but the Walls, and A Book of Things.
