Résumé:
"Design 1935-1965: What Modern Was" presents a definitive and distinct perspective on the decorative arts of the mid-20th century, a period that has only grown in popularity since the book was first published in 1991. Now back in print with 37 new full-color plates of formerly black-and-white images, it is certain to be reaffirmed as a classic of design literature. The encyclopedic, lavishly illustrated volume spotlights seminal objects from the period's most significant innovators, including the Eames' iconic chairs; Noguchi's sculptural lamps; Sottsass's early, rebellious furniture; as well as jewelry, ceramics, and textiles by a range of contemporary masters. Historian Paul Johnson's essay provides a sociopolitical context for the works, and noted experts in various design fields offer a wealth of information.
