During his short but highly productive career, Joe Colombo (1930-1971) became one of the most inventive stars of Italian design. His work was consistently brilliant and always formally right, displaying the ingenuity and technical finish that has made his name synonymous with the sixties style that became known worldwide. This book documents in sketches, drawings, photographs, models, and prototypes all of Colombo's 51 production projects and contains a complete catalog of his works. Vittorio Fagone places Colombo in the European design context and Ignazio Valentini offers an intriguing portrait of this complex man. Beginning his career as an architect and painter, Joe Colombo moved quickly into interiors and then into designing functional objects. His special talent was in producing spacesaving, compact designs at affordable prices for kitchens, wardrobes, and studios. Virtually all of the objects he created were designed for mass production and consumption. Here are the series of Colombo classics produced during the 1960s the molded plastic Elda chair for Kartell, curved Perspex lamps for O-Luce, and placeware setting for Alitalia; the plastic storage trolley and minikitchen on castors which were among the first successful mobile units with many possible functions; and the later experiments with flexible living spaces and flexible seating that were designed to accommodate the complexities of the modern habitat. Vittorio Fagone is an art historian and critic of contemporary art. He is on the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Milan and a Visiting Professor in the Art Department at New York University. Ignazia Favata Valentini is a professor of engineering at theUniversity of Milan. She was Joe Colombo's assistant from 1968 until his death and now manages and owns the Joe Colombo studio and is curator of the Joe Colombo archive.

The latest in Silvana's catalogues raisonnés on Italian design appraises the "total design" ethos of Joe Colombo The Tube Chair, the Spider lamp and the Boby trolley (now in the collection of MoMA in New York); the "Monoblocks," such as the Mini-Kitchen or the Total Table with its integrated dishes; the beautiful global housing unit, a visionary "machine" that aims to encompass all the needs of living--these and other icons of Italian design by the brilliant visionary Milanese designer Joe Colombo expressed a total vision of living that was characteristic of his time. This volume--part of Silvana's series on 20th-century Italian design masters (with previous titles on Sarfatti, Parisi and Arredoluce)--constitutes the first catalogue raisonné of Colombo's work. Around 180 projects are documented, divided between works still in production and historical works, for companies such as Oluce, Kartell, Bieffe, Alessi, Flexform and Boffi. Essays by Ignazia Favata--Colombo's longterm collaborator--and Domitilla Dardi are completed by a critical anthology. Joe Colombowas born in Milan in 1930. In the early 1950s he worked as an artist, exhibiting alongside Enrico Baj, Lucio Fontana and Roberto Matta, also joining the Concrete art movement. He began to devote himself to design in 1960. In 1962 he opened a design studio in Milan, receiving architectural and design commissions. Among his best-known works are his Kartell chair of 1965; the Spider lamp (winner of the Golden Compass award in 1967); and his halogen light of 1970. Colombo died in 1971; he was posthumously included in MoMA's 1972 show Italy--New Domestic Landscape.

Lesley Jackson traces the transition from the contemporary design of the 1950s to the pure geometry of 'the look' and the styles that proliferated throughout the momentous events of the 1960s.
