О книге: 

Творческий остров 2. 100 современных проектов Британских островов в моде и дизайне. После бешеного успеха первого тома Творческих Островов получите новый абсолютно свежий взгляд на экстраординарное направление и качество дизайна в Британии сегодня, включающий работы по 25 дисциплинам дизайна - от архитектуры и инжениринга до моды и ювелирных украшений, от новых медиа и графики до театра и дизайна розничных пространств имногое другое

Following the success of the first volume, Creative Island 2 takes an entirely fresh look at the extraordinary range and quality of design in Britain today, including work from 25 design disciplines – from architecture and engineering to fashion and jewellery; from new media and graphics to theatre and retail design, and many more.

Showing more than 100 recent projects, and also featuring design ideas and visuals of work that is yet to be realized, each one tells the designers’ stories of their work in their own words.

Through a series of themes, John Sorrell explores the relationships between different projects and the way in which different disciplines cross-fertilize, which, he argues, is the key reason for the current wealth of inspired design from the United Kingdom.
