Colani – The Art of Shaping the Future
The Complete Oeuvre

Now is precisely the right moment to publish in book form an extensive account of the fascinating oeuvre of that great design visionary and utopian, Luigi Colani.

Design and architecture are once again at a watershed, facing new challenges owing to the emergence of innovative design and production technologies. Although German designer Luigi Colani has never used a computer, for the last 50 years he has endeavored consistently to single-handedly create designs that take their cue from the organic shapes we encounter in nature. Be it his auto designs, his highly imaginative visions for the cities of tomorrow or his ideas for a tea-cup, Colani has with great passion and conviction always championed the principle of biodynamic design – which is what makes his oeuvre so topical and trailblazing today.

The book presents one of the greatest design oeuvres an artist has ever created.
