About the Item

Rare, vintage hardback coffee table book cataloguing 1990's international furniture design. By the editors of the PBC International, published in 1991. First edition, 240 pages. "The future of product design and the fate of the technology, art and craft that lend it coherent form, parallels the development and degeneration of culture. At the most essential level, at its intellectual core, the culture of this century that is about to end has been molded by the idea of modernism."

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.
