Richard Hutten : Works in Use

Richard Hutten: Works in Use is an illustrated survey of the work of Dutch designer Richard Hutten, a leading figure in the influential Droog Design movement and one of the most inventive voices in contemporary Dutch design. Known for his playful, conceptual approach to everyday objects, Hutten challenges conventional ideas of function, form, and utility through furniture, lighting, and domestic products that combine humor with a rigorous design sensibility.

Documenting a wide range of projects, from experimental one-offs to commercially produced objects, the book explores Hutten's distinctive philosophy of creating works that invite interaction and reconsider the relationship between people and the things they use. Richly illustrated with photographs and project documentation, Works in Use offers an engaging overview of Dutch design's experimental spirit and Hutten's enduring contribution to contemporary furniture and industrial design.
