About the Item

Published in 1973, this book offers in five chapters a review of new chairs, settees and beds, tables, office furniture, cabinets and shelves as well as nursery furniture. The photographs within the book were chosen to show the factual use and design of the pieces, advertising photographs were avoided. There is a short introductory text prefacing each group which analyzes the variety of materials used. The introduction to the book deals with the function of series furniture in society and offers opinions on many aspects of the furniture industry at that time. Finally there is a detailed index listing manufacturers, designers and photographers. This is an ex library book with all the usual markings and stamps.

Furniture by Architects Foreword by Stephen Crafti (Book)
Located in North Yorkshire, GB
'Furniture by Architects' reveals how the same fundamental principles used in building design can be applied on a much smaller scale, resulting in pieces of furniture that embrace function, beauty and context to become objects of art. For centuries, architects have turned their hand to custom furniture in a practice that has resulted in a number of iconic designs, including the timeless Eames Lounge and Ottoman and the ubiquitous Barcelona chair created by Mies van der Rohe for his acclaimed Barcelona Pavilion. 'Furniture by Architects' beautifully illustrates bespoke design by some of the world s leading architects, who are increasingly designing furniture as clients seek interiors customised to specific needs. Foster + Partners' 520 Armchair for Walter Knoll has the texture and comfort found in a traditional leather armchair, while the Liquid Glacial Dining & Coffee Table by Zaha Hadid Design...
