About the Item

The First in a series of Brazilian furniture design, this book abstains from discourse. The pieces have been chosen for the consistency of the work done by their creators and because they are authentic, representations of a national design. They Have been organised in chronological order, dispensing with the personal narrative, but demonstrating the contrasts and the collective evolutionary line of Brazilian furniture, translated in the tome by 190 seats, chairs, stools and benches by 60 designers , from 1928 to 2013. With this we hope to offer the reader an open, anti-dogmatic and primarily plural view of the creative diversity presented by this segment. Choose your seats and enjoy the read. 216 pages. 550 grams. Text in Portuguese and English.

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...
