The renowned designer and style guru Ilse Crawford showcases her body of influential  holistic
work for the first time  articulating her groundbreaking philosophies for design and living.
Studioilse  the award-winning design studio founded by Ilse Crawford  bridges the worlds of
interior design  architecture  and product design with the philosophy of putting the human
being at the center. Fascinated by what drives us and makes us feel alive  Crawford says: When
I look at making spaces  I don t just look at the visual. I m much more interested in the
sensory thing  in thinking about it from the human context  the primal perspective  the thing
that touches you. Featuring Studioilse s work to date  from private residences to hotels 
restaurants  and retail projects  this book illustrates the effectiveness of design grounded in
human needs and desires. Layering materials and textures  combined with her understanding of
human behavior  Crawford s designs are sensual and accessible. A forerunner of the holistic
design movement a decade ago  her humanistic approach has now become the norm. This volume
illustrates why Crawford s design philosophy is so seminal her work has influenced not only a
generation of Dutch and European designers  but also Americans due to her acclaimed Soho House
New York. With new photography and essays by Crawford and design critic Edwin Heatcote  this
inspirational volume is sure to be one of the most important design books of the year.
