Synopsis "Pin-Up Interviews"
PIN–UP Interviews is a compilation of over 50 of the most fascinating interviews from PIN–UP magazine since its first issue was published in October 2006. Serious, yet accessible, and featuring the elegant and modern aesthetic PIN–UP's readers have come to expect, there is no comparable compilation found today with such a stunning array of contemporary design talent collected in one place. It's an indispensable source for all lovers of today's brightest architectural and design ideas. PIN–UP Interviews is the first book produced by PIN–UP, the award-winning, New York-based biannual architecture and design magazine. Cheekily dubbing itself the "Magazine for Architectural Entertainment," PIN–UP features interviews with architects, designers, and artists, and presents their work informally—as a whimsical assembly of ideas, stories, and conversations, all paired with cutting-edge photography and artwork. Both raw and glossy, this "cult design zine" in the words of The New York Times, is a nimble mix of genres and themes, finding inspiration in the high and the low by casting a refreshingly playful eye on rare architectural gems, amazing interiors, and smart design, resulting in a veritable Venn diagram of where these spheres cross-pollinate.Included in PIN–UP Interviews are the architects David Adjaye, Shigeru Ban, Ricardo Bofill, David Chipperfield, Zaha Hadid, Junya Ishigami, Rem Koolhaas, Peter Marino, Richard Meier, and Ettore Sottsass; artists Daniel Arsham, Cyprien Gaillard, Simon Fujiwara, Boris Rebetez, Oscar Tuazon, Andro Wekua, and Robert Wilson; and designers Rafael de Cárdenas, Martino Gamper, Rick Owens, Clémence Seilles, Hedi Slimane, and Bethan Laura Wood.
