Perfect Paper Mosaics
Attractive, fun, and flexible, paper mosaics are a fabulous new way to decorate furniture, spruce up a picture frame, transform a tea tray, or embellish a book cover. And because they use many of the same tools as scrapbooking and rubber-stamping, crafters who already enjoy those arts will find the 10 techniques introduced here a perfect fit. The skills proceed from simple to more complicated, starting with the basic process of backing the paper with poster board, cutting the tiles, gluing the pieces, and sealing and protecting the finished product. Page after page reveals colorful and unique items, including coasters, refrigerator magnets, tissue box holders, a backgammon board, wall hangings, a lidded box, a lampshade, clocks, and decorative mirrors.

Art Nouveau by Alastair Duncan, ISBN 0500202737
Alastair Duncan, a recognized expert on the period, tells the story of the meteoric rise and fall of Art Nouveau, which began as a general reaction by young artists and designers to the stifling traditionalism and revivalism of the mid-nineteenth-century fine and decorative arts. The "new art" first made itself felt around 1895, in architecture, furniture, glass, ceramics and the other applied arts, and fell into eclipse after World War One, until its rediscovery in the 1960s. The author recounts the history of this important modern movement in detail, introducing the main personalities - Galle, Lalique, Tiffany and others - and relating their aims and accomplishments to the background from which the movement emerged.

Minimum by John Pawson, ISBN 0714838179
This extraordinary visual essay explores the notion of 'minimum', a concept which is rooted in the pursuit of simplicity, as applied to architecture, art and design; it is the quality that a building or object possesses when every component, every detail and every junction has been reduced or condensed to its essentials. Now itself condensed, Minimum is available for the first time as a pocket edition.
This book, designed and compiled by the minimalist architect John Pawson, captures the essential qualities of particular kinds of simplicity. This is illustrated by architecture, ranging from prehistoric Mexico and Ancient Egypt to the high Modernism of Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe; art, from the Dutch School to Donald Judd; the photography of Robert Mapplethorpe and Bill Brandt; and furniture and pottery. With its broad spread across time and a wide geographical area, Minimum seeks to analyse the elements of simplicity and capture them in print.
