Martino Gamper:
Electa Design Series

Martino Gamper – Electa

The first volume Martino Gamper, with an introduction by Marco Sammicheli is dedicated to one of the most versatile and formally restless figures on the contemporary design scene. Born in South Tyrol and based between London and the broader European context, Gamper has built a practice that moves fluidly across furniture design, spatial installations, research-driven experiments and collaborative commissions. Internationally recognised for projects such as 100 Chairs in 100 Days (2007), he has consistently worked at the intersection of found objects, typological experimentation and material intelligence. This monograph is the first publication capable of recounting the full scope and legacy of his work.

The graphic design of The Design Series introduces several distinctive features — including a double-flap cover composed of detachable postcards and a recognisable typographic treatment on the spine — that reinforce the idea of the book itself as a designed object, coherent with the contents it presents.
