第十一章 各国设计简史(之二)(第56/57页)

宜家除了名列世界500强企业之外,还被《财富》杂志(Fortune )在2006年评为全球最适宜工作(Best Companies to work)的200家企业之一,被评为“加拿大最优秀的100个雇主”之一。

进入21世纪的瑞典设计,秉承着经济实惠、功能清晰、经久耐用的一贯传统,坚守着民主意识、社会责任的原则。设计师们相信,优良的设计是提高民众生活质量和审美水平的重要手段。正如维克多·帕帕纳克在庆祝“宜家”创业50周年纪念活动上指出的:“为了让我们设计和制造出来的产品能够帮助、而不是阻碍这个星球上人类生活的可持续性,我们的设计必须有益于环保,必须符合人体工学,必须适合人体尺寸,必须符合人性,必须富于社会责任感。”(*8 )

『A&E设计』在1980年代设计的方便提起放到任何平面上使用的台灯。

宜家的展示间不但陈列商品,也宣示着『设计是一种生活方式』。

注释

*1  原文为:"emphasized the need to tackle and solve the problems of the least privileged classes."

*2  原文为:"If the Memphis object is an affirmation of the transitory, the luxurious, the superficial, a costly and amoral object... the Zeus object is a modest, moral object with transcendental tendencies. As such, it reaffirms an absolute quality."

*3  原文为:"A chair is to have no backside. It should be beautiful from all angles."

*4  原文为:"There must be life, blood, and heart in things."

*5  原文为:"Only the simplest is best. Take away all that is unnecessary, develop the plasticity."

*6  原文为:"Every object is only the crystallization of perception, just like a poem."

*7  原文为:"The home must not be a mere effective machine. It must offer comfort, rest and cosiness. There are no puritan principles in good interior decoration."

*8  原文为:"The sustainability of life on this planet can be helped or hindered through the design and use of the objects we make. Ethical design must be environmentally and ecologically earth-friendly. It must be human-scale; it must be humane; it must be embedded in social responsibility."
