What feeds the inspiration of the designer? Observation.In Jasper Morrison's collection of pictures, the icons of design history meet up with the unassuming objects of everyday life. Every picture tells a story and creates a new one in juxtaposition with its neighbor -- without words, in the language of form. Morrison responds to the arbitrariness of form with simplicity and complexity, poetry and humor in a repertoire of compelling designs. A World Without Words is a pocket-sized school of seeing that addresses designers and consumers who wish to explore the universe of goods.Jasper Morrison ( *1959 ) studied at the Kingston Polytechnic Design School and the Royal College of Art in London. He works as a designer between London, Paris, and Tokyo. His designs are produced by leading manufacturers of furniture, lighting, electronics, shoes, and more. He has published a number of books, including A World Without Words, Super Normal, Everything but the Walls, and A Book of Things.
