Formica® is 100 years old : to celebrate this centennial, Formica Corporation has published Formica Forever.

Résumé:
The esteemed collectors Laurence and Patrick Seguin first discovered the work of Jean Prouvé in the late 1980s, and were quick to embrace his entire aesthetic vision, from architectural design to furniture. "There is no difference between constructing a piece of furniture and constructing a building," Prouvé once famously said, and the Seguins have modeled their collection around his stance, becoming major advocates and disseminators of his work in France. This book, which presents the Seguins' Prouvé collection for the first time, consequently provides a comprehensive overview of their holdings.
