  This title in the series devoted to the work of contemporary British architects and designers concentrates on the work of Ron Arad, who designed the first concrete stereo system, made armchairs out of recycled carseats from old Rovers and turned a stack of bricklayers hods into bookshelves. Ron Arad's own gallery in London, One Off, is an important centre for the design world. He has established himself as one of the most inventive and intriguing of the new generation of designers working at the edges of art, design and architecture. Arad works quickly and his ideas constantly evolve, allowing him to go beyond the limits of furniture design. His architectural background is re-emerging and examples of his work can be seen in the interiors of many stores. Deyan Sudjic has also written Cult Objects , The House Style Book , English Extremists: the Architecture of CZWG and The Lighting Book amongst others.
