本書最初於2019年出版,是首部頌揚知名設計師 Michael Anastassiades 作品的專書,並以該年稍早舉辦的一場展覽為起點,探討他的設計理念。在展覽中,精心陳列的展示品——Michael 從大自然中發掘或從個人收藏中挑選的物件——構成了一組物件的星座,以及一套「彼此相襯之物」的語法。這本書可視為這個充滿物件與意義的宇宙中的又一層次。

書中除了展覽照片,還收錄了一系列文章,回顧 Anastassiades 在賽普勒斯的早年生活、當地自然環境與藝術人物對他的影響、他對人類與周遭物件之間心理連結的探索,以及他對形式、比例,乃至自然與設計中不可預測性的賞析。

作者包括 Alessandro Rabottini、Elena Parpa、Emily King、Mario García Torres、Michael Anastassiades、Yiannis Toumazis 與 Zoë Ryan。文字編輯:Alessandro Rabottini。攝影:Osma Harvilahti。

Sofia O. ★★★★★

The way it frames the exhibition as a starting point for the designs makes the whole book feel like a personal walkthrough, not just a catalog. I keep flipping back to the section on lighting pieces because the layout gives each object room to breathe.

Emily ★★★★★

The photography and layout capture the restrained elegance of Anastassiades' work far better than any gallery visit I’ve made—each page feels like a quiet, deliberate composition. It’s the kind of book you leave on the coffee table and catch yourself flipping through again and again.

Zoe G. ★★★★★

The exhibition angle makes this so much more than a standard monograph — flipping through the pages feels like walking the original show, with each piece given room to breathe. The photography captures the weight and balance of the work perfectly, and I keep finding new details on every read.
