Furniture for the 21st Century
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A unique, up-to-the-minute collection of the finest hand-crafted furniture
A mirror whose exquisite veneering evokes earlier times. An endlessly versatile modular boardroom table in sensuous walnut. A new-century chest whose ten different woods mimic the bold, complex strata of a rock face. Furniture for the 21st Century highlights these and many other superb pieces from thirty-six eminent designer makers whose work has been commissioned from around the world. Its hundreds of color photographs illustrate rich and startling departures from the blandness of so much recent furniture design. This visual feast of modern concept and magnificent workmanship is an essential reference for interior designers, furniture historians, students of design, and all who--like the readership of Fine Woodworking magazine--relish the ultimate marriage of art and craft.
