MODERN FURNITURE. “Konemann“

Modern Furniture presents an overview of the most important developments and highlights in furniture design. Beginning with the latest trends for 2009 the book covers the past 150 years. The spotlight focuses on several individual gems of design, from the most contemporary Heaven series of the Italian manufacturer Emu back to the famous cantilever chair, but also on creations such as laminate and chipboard. Materials that we no longer regard as design innovations but which have nevertheless greatly influenced the home decor of our times. Concise texts accompany the individually featured designs, whilst essays on selected themes and styles, written by experts round off this benchmark illustrated book.
