Perfect Imperfect: The Beauty of Accident, Age & Patina

Perfect Imperfect: The Beauty of Accident, Age & Patina by Karen McCartney, Sharyn Cairns, Glen Proebstel
2016 | ISBN: 1743364814 | English | 288 pages | EPUB | 98 MB

Perfect Imperfect takes as its founding principle the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, advocating the beauty to be found in imperfection, impermanence, and the authentic. Importantly this is done without losing sight of the benefits of living in the 21st century, where designers are merging digital technology with the handmade to produce items that combine the best of both worlds. This beautiful, inspirational book, with thought-provoking text by Karen McCartney and stunning visuals by Sharyn Cairns and Glen Proebstel, is a celebration of accident, curation, collection, hesitation, collaboration, reuse, reimagining, and true originality. It explores an established aesthetic in a new way, as illustrated by the homes and studios of international and Australian creatives. It embraces current design objects alongside well-worn ones, and features interior settings that mix comfort, design, and an off-beat beauty.
