Formats & Editions

Founded in 2009 by Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin, the Milan and Rotterdam-based design studio Formafantasma has emerged over the past decade as one of the most influential studios of its generation, redefining the possibilities of contemporary design. This first comprehensive monograph offers a compelling and critical examination of their pioneering practice focusing on their work ranging from product design to special design, strategic planning and design consultancy.

This book presents a systematic survey of their wideranging portfolio and explores their collaborations with Prada, Flos, Artek, Fondation Cartier, and many other leading institutions and brands. More than a catalogue of work, the book also acts as an in-depth exploration of the nature and purpose of design today. Extensive interviews with the founders are combined with contributions from leading scholars, practioners, and curators, including some of the most important writers on design, philosophy, architecture, and art today, such as Paola Antonelli, Alice Rawsthorn, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Hella Jongerius, Marianne Goebl, Domitilla Dardi, Anna Tsing, Emanuele Coccia, and Andres Jaque.
