The most comprehensive publication on Dieter Rams—one of the most prominent industrial designers of the 20th century. As head of design at Braun from 1961 to 1995, Rams created numerous iconic objects that are still manufactured and sold today. His work and ideas about design are inextricably linked to the question: how people live—and how they could live better.

This monograph is not only an overview of Dieter Rams’ life and work, but also an exploration of his design philosophy. In the book, you’ll find detailed essays on his work at Braun and Vitsœ, his ideas, lectures, and his famous “Ten Principles of Good Design.”

The publication is supplemented by sketches, photographs of products and prototypes, archival material, as well as photographs from Dieter Rams’ home and the Braun archive created specifically for this book—a unique opportunity to explore the world’s most comprehensive collection of Rams’ works.

The foreword to this edition was written by Jonathan (Jony) Ive, Apple's former chief design officer.

In addition to hundreds of products, the book also presents Rams’s only architectural project and his approach to sustainable living.
