In the dwindling days before 2008 we thought it appropriate to sit back and take stock of the whirlwind that has been 2007 on wallpaper.com and bring you a round-up of our favourite stories from each month.
While others might batten down the hatches in January, we at Wallpaper* kickstart each year with our annual design awards. 2007 saw them go stellar in scope and scale, firmly lodging the event and issue as a permanent, unmissable fixture on the global design calendar. Later that month, we caught up with Ed Ruscha - our Artist of the Year - and were taken on an exclusive photographic tour of the artist's life.
Design Awards: the winners
What better way to start the year than with a gigantic party celebrating our favourite things across the many disciplines of Wallpaper*, surrounded by our favourite people from the design world? We handed over the task of picking winners for ten special awards to an elite judging panel, themselves a carefully selected and influential group from our favourite people in the industry.
Photo essay - artist Ed Ruscha
Wallpaper* contributing photogrpaher Laura Wilson was granted rare access to American artist Ed Ruscha's LA studio. The extraordinarily candid and revealing photographic essay shows the artist at work, at play and in his studio alongside a selection of his most seminal works.
