In 1986, Pierre Mazairac and Karel Boonzaaijer design 'Vision', starting from the philosophy of creating a cabinet as an element of architectural composition. Due to its incredible flexibility, versatility and very modest design, 'Vision' has been very successful for the Dutch manufacturer Pastoe. Twenty-five years later, its compositional scope is still limitless; from a three-dimensional relief design to a graphical lattice of lines and surfaces, from a series of sideboards to an architectural landscape of volumes. The book 'Vision: Space for Imagination' tells the story of this young classic.

It is not an exaggeration to say that today we live in an age of unprecedented sexual freedom. Far from over, the sexual revolution seems on the contrary to have gained a new momentum. Globalised and digitalised, it is spreading its gospel like wildfire. The objects and their creators that feature in "Made for Love", reflect this new evolution and its corresponding styles and attitudes. Some names of designers as well as brands will be surprisingly familiar. Sensual pleasure objects, furniture, varying home accessories - they all have a naughty spirit in common, combined with quality, design, a certain flair, and sometime ingenious engineering. Avoiding the trashy in favour of the classy, "Made for Love" is a treat for anyone wanting to indulge in a sensual experience.
