They all have a keen focus on the high carbon footprint of the construction industry and of the need to find solutions. The reduction of CO2 emissions is also a key issue when the bookazine takes the reader behind the scenes of the development of wall tiles with a high content of crushed, used bricks. As usual, this issue of the bookazine also includes stories about textiles, glassware, food and drink. And as a special feature, it contains Rigetta Klint’s journal notes from the creation of the issue.\u003cbr\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eHåndværk\u003c\/em\u003e bookazine is based in Denmark and is published by designer, photographer and writer Rigetta Klint. In the publication, Klint draws on her lengthy experience and career – initially as a practicing craftsperson and designer, and later as a writer and photographer. Her approach is driven by high standards and dedication.\u003cbr\u003eWith a clear and consistent emphasis on craftsmanship and materiality, the \u003cem\u003eHåndværk\u003c\/em\u003e bookazine portrays the living and changing practice of design and craft through in-depth interviews and portraits painted in both words and images. It focuses on craft in its own right and as a necessary basis for architecture, art, fashion, interior design, as well as for a good meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNO. 9\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe theme of \u003cem\u003eHåndværk Bookazine No. 9\u003c\/em\u003e is interiors. It invites us inside the studios and workshops where the things in our homes take shape. We meet glassblower Alexander Kirkeby, who graduated just a few years ago and has already made a name for himself in the international design scene; recent graduate, ceramic artist Heidi Lillevang, who experiments with stucco; and stucco worker Peter Funder, who has 35 years’ experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the article entitled ‘In Collaboration’, architect Desislava Lynge says, ‘An interior can be magical, whether it is minimalist or chaotic or has books and art from floor to ceiling, as long as it reflects the people who live there.’ She adds that if she were to point to a single key feature, apart from the life inside a house, it would be the influx of daylight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLight is also a key topic for lighting designer Fie Paarup, who has launched successful production of unique curtains sewn from vintage and surplus textiles. Rigetta Klint met with her to talk about curtains and the life inside a house. Meanwhile, textile is the natural choice of material for Sia Hurtigkarl and Tanja Kirst. Each in their way, from their respective points of view and with very different expressions, they both work with woven rugs as their medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to rooms, furniture, curtains and rugs, stucco, ceramics and glass, the upcoming issue of the bookazine maintains a focus on how we become who we are and how we engage with and speak about ourselves, each other and our practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are invited on a trip to Öland to visit a very special school founded in 1957 by Carl Malmsten and his wife, Siv Malmsten. Now, as then, the school teaches ceramics, textile, wood and landscape architecture. We are also introduced to Professor Andreas Nobel, a cabinetmaker and designer who teaches in Sweden’s finest cabinetmaker’s programme at Malmstens in Stockholm (a campus at Linköping University). He says, ‘You will underestimate any subject area if you approach every field in the same way and if you fail to acknowledge that mastering a given field takes many years of training. For example, it takes lifelong practice to attain a high-level mastery of philosophy. Similarly, it takes many years of practice to attain a high-level mastery of crafts, design or art.’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe questions whether it is possible to attain a sufficient grasp of both areas in a single lifetime, to have philosophy inform art or design, and vice versa. And yet, it is common to see scholars from a wide range of academic fields speak with great authority about art, design and crafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘When you hear and read these comments, you need to bear in mind that what they are addressing is not the subject matter itself but the philosophy of it,’ he argues. ‘To a philosopher, art is a philosophical problem; to the artist, art is a possibility, while designers and craftspersons look for solutions.’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the bookazine, we also meet ceramicist Louise Gaarmann, golds applied artist Sarah Hurtigkarl and architect Erik Brandt Dam, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNO. 12\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHÅNDVÆRK bookazine no. 12 - a bookazine that is focused on colors. HÅNDVÆRK bookazine, based in Danmark, is published twice a year by designer, photographer and writer Rigetta Klint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRigetta Klint about bookazine no. 12: ‘In many regards, my work with the bookazines is not dissimilar to the way furniture designer Thomas Woltmann approaches his work, as he describes it here: ‘I am convinced that the more local you can make your production, and the more we know about materials and the production of a given piece of furniture – or any other product, for that matter – the greater value it will hold for us, and the better we will look after it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy own practice unfolds at the intersection of this local outlook, historical knowledge and a modern design vision. That is the case whether I am working on art and communication projects, small-scale production in my own workshop or the design of items to be produced by a manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Idea Books","offers":[{"title":"No. 7 Construction","offer_id":45446953697350,"sku":"2734607","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"No. 9 Interiors","offer_id":45446953730118,"sku":"8761908","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"No. 12 Colour","offer_id":45446953762886,"sku":"H499298","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/8992\/6982\/files\/9019a6d8-32b8-4a8d-9e84-347d0b3b2dd2.png?v=1784034818","url":"https:\/\/woodlandmod.com\/products\/handvaerk-bookazine","provider":"Woodland Mod","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
