THE TOUCH

The Touch, the first collaboration between
Nathan Williams of Kinfolk and Jonas Bjerre-
Poulsen of Norm Architects, welcomes read-
ers into over 25 inspiring spaces where
interior design is not only visually appealing
but engages all of the human senses.
Through beautiful homes, hotels, muse-
ums, and retail stores-from contemporary
designs by Ilse Crawford and Bijoy Jain to
classic cases by Arne Jacobsen-readers
are invited to explore how experiencing elements
such as light, nature, materiality,
color, and community can deliberately bring
us back to our senses and imbue every day
with a richer quality.
In addition to stunning photography
and interviews with design industry lead-
ers as John Pawson and David Thulstrup,
the book also details philosophical and art
history references that reflect the tradition
of design and color theory. For a deeper
­ understanding of the concepts explored,
The Touch includes an appendix which pro-
files architects such as Lina Bo Bardi and
Richard Neutra. Heritage design pieces that
helped influence this movement are also
listed in the book.
