Design liquidoTommaso Bovo

Liquid Design’ aims to understand and explain contemporary Italian design, a field still little addressed by historians and critics. The book starts from the voice of the designers through interviews conducted in person, thus rejecting the limiting method of questions and answers written from a distance: the author entered the designers’ studios, touched their prototypes and designs, had real, concrete, lived dialogues with them.
The graphic project was created by the author of the research himself, Tommaso Bovo, and aimed to represent the central thesis of the book, the transformation of 20th century ‘solid design’ into contemporary ‘liquid design’.
The publication was printed entirely on FSC-certified, controlled fibres and recycled material. The quality of Fedrigoni papers ensured an extraordinary result, even in the difficult blurring of the lettering on the cover.
