Any recommendations on good books on Dieter Rams, Braun and the philosophy behind all of that itself? I'd like to learn more about it.


OP here, yeap. Here is a list of books I have and recommend:

* Braun, Designed to Keep (Phaidon) * Dieter Rams (Phaidon) * Bauhaus (Taschen) * Dieter Rams, So wenig wie möglich (it's in German, but there is also an Englisch version, from Sophie Lovell)


Great, will look into these!


There's a documentary called Objectified that may interest you:

Thanks, I will try to find it.

Amazon does have it on DVD or BluRay but not on Prime. And for anybody reading this: There's naughty stuff down the search results for me, so watch out... ;-)



Ah, nice!

Also TIL: Vimeo has a lending period thing now. Will watch it on the weekend.


+1 to Rams doc.
