There has never been a designer quite like Auska Hempel. With the sheer creativity of her work, its originality, its awe-inspiring ambition - and its lasting influence - few contemporary designers approach her importance. This book is a first: it is both a breathtaking exploration of her achievement; and an authoritative insight into how this entirely original designer works. Author Marcus Binney is one of the most internationally rewned writers on architecture and design. In interviews and in ravishing illustrated essays, he throws light on an astonishing process. Hempel's work, which spans two Blakes hotels in London and Amsterdam; the minimalist Hempel in London and Warapura in Brazil; private houses, from the incomparable English country house, Cole Park, to properties across the globe; the iconic Turkish gulet Beluga, with its black sails caught in the sunset; and her garden designs....all are design elements interlinked. All come together in one extraordinary designer.
