This book presents the work of the French designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the rising stars of international design and the most promising international designers to have emerged from France since phillippe Starck in the 1980s. Despite their youth - Ronan is 31 and Erwan 27 - the Bouroullecs have already realized a wide range of products, from furniture to jewellery, lighting to interiors, for leading companies such as Cappellini, Vitra and Issey Miyake. the book is conceived and designed by the Bouroullecs and it has the freshness, refinement and elegance of all their products. It includes texts by the Bouroullecs, Rolf Fehlbaum, Giulio Cappellini and Issey Miyake among others.


Ronan en Erwan Bouroullec try to bring ‘feeling’ back to the relationship between man and the material world. They experiment with old and new materials and combine industrial and craft projects: “We need shapes with feelings which touch the subconscious and make the object something that can be appropriate. Our objects want to communicate like a Haiku: strong, poetic and crystal clear”.
