Modern Furniture: 150 Years of Design

Modern Furniture: 150 Years of Design by Andrea Mehlhose, Fremdkörper Studio. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9783848000302.

Modern Furniture presents a retrospective of the most important developments and highlights in furniture design of the past 150 years, beginning with the latest trends. 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 that we no longer regard as design innovations but have nevertheless greatly influenced the home décor of our times. Concise texts accompanying the individually featured designs, as well as excurses on selected themes and styles written by experts, round off this benchmark illustrated book.
