—To reveal the increasing essentialness of material with a compilation of brilliant ideas, and craftmanship
Edited by Victionary - www.victionary.com

Following the success of Amatterofdesign™ series, SimplySeries™ is the latest Victionary series in 2008. Be the first volume of it, Simply Material introduces a number of materials that create objects or art forms
in irregular shapes of interest and beauty, and demonstrate how the composition alone is able to liberate these materials from the category of raw junk and arouse visual interest.

Material continues to be, is the most important element underpinning all criteria of design, especially when it comes to architecture, interior, product, industrial and fashion. Objects created with individuality and
narrative qualities – whether by sophisticated new technologies or traditional handcraftsmanship, are explored in Simply Material, so please join us now and be inspired!
