The new book in the Typology Collections series is devoted to the camping tent. A common feature of rural landscapes and urban spaces, the tent is an omnipresent typology whose apparent simplicity is deceptive. Halfway between architecture that can be manipulated and furniture that can be inhabited, the tent has many uses and brings together a variety of realities. Reminiscent of primitive huts, descended from military camps, a shelter for leisure or makeshift accommodation, precarious yet resistant, protective yet porous, the tent is used in both familiar and extreme environments. A basic assembly of high-performance materials, it is designed in the West and produced in Southeast Asia. Even more than the single-material objects studied in previous issues of Typology, this composite object allows us to become aware of the complex nature of the things that surround us.
Comprising 136 pages, it is published in both French and English. The first part of the book brings together a collection of 165 photographs of objects reproduced in two-colour printing over 88 pages. The second part of the book includes an introductory text written by industrial designer Sina Sohrab and a joint interview with three professionals who are knowledgeable about this subject and experts on this object: Olivier Sirost, historian and sociologist specialising in camping; Anna Ferrino, director of the Italian company Ferrino, the oldest tent manufacturer in Europe; and Raphaël Têtedoie, outdoor equipment designer and tent specialist. This 48-page section is illustrated with a photo reportage from a Chinese factory, 30 colour illustrations, and a series of photographs by Anaick Lejart and Marine Armandin.
