Описание: In this profusely illustrated study, a noted furniture designer brings together more than 40 examples of chairs that combine practicality and elegance to transcend the confines of period and fashion. Featured are such modern classics as Thonets Bentwood armchair, Breuers Wassily chair, van der Rohes Barcelone chair, and many more.
Each chair is described in detail with the aid of photographs, Mr. Meadmores own explanatory drawings and some reproductions of the original designers plans. The author also explores the ways in which the designers approached and solved inherent problems of function and aesthetics. The scale drawings in this book are all one-eighth of full size, allowing easy assessment of dimensions and visual comparison of size and proportion.
Many of these chairs are housed in museum collections; others are still being produced today. Now, this inexpensive edition of The Modern Chair enables students of furniture and any interested reader to make a thorough study of the most important chairs of modern times.
