Description: Mantova: Corraini, 2012. 20cm., pbk., 104pp. illus. Italian-English text. Exhibition held at Triennale Design Museum, Milano. Summary: 'Three men in a boat' was the name Giovanni Klaus Koenig in 1989 gave the group of young designers onathan De Pas, Donato D’Urbino and Paolo Lomazzi. The five-word title cleverly captured two distinctive features of the three men: the playfulness of their approach to design and their passion for sailing. 'There was a sailing centre famous for its seriousness and rigour at Caprera. Ours was rather different: it was important to teach the rules but equally important to spend time together and to play the guitar'. says D’Urbino, talking of the sailing school he founded. Play and rules, rules and play: a rare approach by designers and one that the book Il gioco e le regole (the game and the rules) plays tribute to. A selection of iconic pieces shows the important contribution De Pas, D’Urbino and Lomazzi have made to Italian design both professionally and as regards research and experimentation.
