Furniture & Interiors of the 1970s
The design of the 1970s was distinguished by a strong confluence of creativity and functionalism in furnishing and decor. We already recognize many '70s furniture designs as icons of mid-century modernism-and the proof is the prices they command at fine furniture auctions today.Bony examines the works of international designers whose creations exemplify this period, from the ergonomically-focused designers working in America to the pure design movement in Scandinavia and design innovators in Italy led by Archizoom, Alchymia, and Gaetano Pesce. This indispensable reference book chronicles the period's interior design trends with over 200 photographs focusing on artistic and decorative innovations that created the first intelligent and informed design conversation between two continents.
History of Furniture: Ancient to 19th C.
No one is better qualified to discuss the evolution of fine furniture from ancient Egypt to Victorian England--with full details of its construction, decoration, use, and historical context--than Michael Huntley. As the Head of Furniture Restoration and Conservation at Sotheby's and author of the acclaimed "History of Furniture" articles in Furniture and Cabinetmaking magazine, he speaks with authority on every style and every period. With the aid of color photographs from Sotheby's unrivaled archives, he gives everyone interested in the subject--collectors, dealers, curators, museum-goers--a book that is both a magnificent gallery they'll visit from cover to cover, and a definitive reference they'll return to again and again.
