The high-tech industries of today are unleashing hitherto undreamt-of creative possibilities. The brilliantly illustrated Material ConneXtion identifies the key trends in the field, looking to the future and highlighting materials with the most potential for development. The authors define substances according to their base compositions rather than their current uses, which leads the reader to a clearer understanding of each material's potential and applications. The materials examined include:metals, glass, ceramics, polymers, natural and naturally derived materials, carbon-based materials, and cement-based materials.

Material ConneXion is an important - and inspiring - volume for all interior, product, graphic and fashion designers, anyone connected with packaging, design, architecture or the environment, and for artists and sculptors
