Surrealism may be firstly known as a school in literature and fine arts, but the influence of this school on other domains cannot be underestimated. This book bundles designs and objects of surrealists and shows that nothing is what it seems to be: hairy carpets, lamps in the shape of a milk bottle, and USB sticks cut from wood branches.
Today surrealism may be firstly known as a school in literature and fine arts, but the influence of this 20th-century school on other domains cannot be underestimated. The world of contemporary design doesn''t escape a healthy portion of surreal humour. Forms with a smile bundles designs and objects of modern surrealists and shows that nothing is what it seems to be.Hairy carpets, lamps in the shape of a milk bottle, USB sticks cut from wood branches or chairs made from plush toys. Is it just humour? Or is it a stimulating statement wrapped in a contagious smile? Just like surrealism, design sometimes tells more than we think. Armed with subtle irony these new surrealists wage war against a world reigned by a certain sérieux.
