Taschen`s 25th anniversary - Special edition! One day, Ferdinand Cheval, a French postman, came across a stone at Hauterives near Lyon, and was fascinated by its strange, evocative shape. He spent the next three decades collecting stones, shells, and fossils, and used them to build the Palais id?al. Cheval`s palace is one of many works of architectural fantasy in this book, the result of over 20 years` research by celebrated architectural photographer Deidi von Schaewen. Like Cheval, the creators of these extraordinary worlds simply started building, with no rules to guide them and, in most cases, no previous artistic experience. These fantasy palaces, bizarre sanctuaries, and colorful sculpture gardens seldom follow a plan. Often the...

Between the first decade of the 20th century, when women were still locked into figure-shaping corsets, to the last years of the millennium, when sexy sweats and low-rise jeans became must-have status items, fashion evolved from a luxury enjoyed by the highest echelon of society to a global business that whisks trends off the runway and into the stores before the last supermodel has left the catwalk. From full skirts to miniskirts and morning coats to leisure suits, men`s and women`s clothing design evolved so rapidly that it was all one could do to keep up and stay in style. Each decade is now associated with definable fashions, short-lived fads and signature silhouettes. And in recent decades, retro has become de rigueur, as designers...

The 1980s was an exceptionally fertile period for the cinema, which skilfully reflected the decade`s diverse trends and the tastes of an audience obsessed with fashion, music and the latest high tech gadgetry - preferably in matt black. As the US regained confidence in itself during the Reagan years, Hollywood catered to the emerging yuppie market with movies that range from brat-pack capers such as "St Elmo`s Fire" and "The Breakfast Club" to testosterone driven blockbusters like "The Terminator" and "Die Hard"; from the independent, low-budget films of the Coen Brothers to the revival of classic American film noir. The Brits chipped in with "A Fish Called Wanda" and "Chariots of Fire" and the Italians with the enchanting "Cinema...
