Klappentext zu „Functional Aesthetics “
Functional Aesthetics is based on the successful book Fashionable Technology (Springer 2009). This new book addresses the history and trends beginning with the 1960ies when space encountered fashion, stimulated by the photos of the well-known fashion photographer, made for Harper s Bazaar. An other milestone is the dress Firefly by Maggie Orth, created in 1995, the year that can be considered the hour of birth of Fashionable Technology . Today, we may say that Fashionable Technology has grown up and is now a strong perspective for fashion, technology, and industry.The book presents inspiring projects between the poles of fashion, design, technology, and sciences. Moreover, it shows commercial products which can already be found in the consumer's every day life, including professional clothing for specific requirements.
