尽管Joerg Schellmann设计的家具崇尚简约，但其最重要的目标是 "避免平庸，散发出微妙的美感"。他的家具设计表达了他对极简和概念艺术的深入研究。同时，它们反映了一种受到工业和工场同等启发的美学。这本含有插图的书籍介绍了这些既引人入胜，又清晰明了的作品，并附有马泰奥•克瑞斯、唐纳德•贾德和利亚姆•吉利克等人的文字。

For all their simplicity, the most important goal in Joerg Schellmann's furniture designs is to "avoid banality and reveal subtle beauty." This kind of simplicity-skillfully reducing everything to the essentials-is anything but easy to achieve. It requires the special knowledge of aesthetics and the sort of artistic experience Schellmann has. As an art dealer and publisher, he has been working with the most important artists for over forty years.

His furniture designs articulate his in-depth examination of Minimal and Concept Art. At the same time, they reflect an aesthetic that is equally inspired by industry and workshop. This work, as fascinating as it is clear, is presented in this illustrated book and accompanied by texts by Mateo Kries, Donald Judd, and Liam Gillick, among others.
