Art Edition limited to 100 copies (No. 1–100), featuring leather marquetry on the cover and a Micarta slipcase designed by Marc Newson and Richard Allan
He has designed chairs, restaurants, boutiques, cars, planes, and even a spaceship. For Australian industrial designer
Marc Newson, the sky is no limit. From mass-produced objects to limited-edition furniture to fashion, Newson has blurred boundaries, mapped new territories, and made himself
an international superstar.
This comprehensive tome leaves no stone unturned in cataloguing all of Newson’s works to date, from early pieces such as
Lockheed Lounge (which holds the world record for the highest price paid for a piece of designer furniture, at over two million dollars) through designs of household objects and more recent, large-scale projects such as the interior of Qantas’s A380 and the Aquariva boat.
