New York, Harry N. Abrams, 1990. Hardcover. Sky-blue stamped cloth, black & illus. dust jacket, 155 pp. 192 color illus. Issued in conjunction with a traveling exhibition. "More than 120 leading architectural, interior, and industrial design firms worldwide were asked to share their ideas and to explore the materials and technologies of the future. The participants created 30-inch-square collage panels for an exhibition intended to present an overview of the next generation of design. Not limited by the usual constraints of function and budget, their imaginations were given free rein to express their ideas." (dj).
