Each letter delves into one facet of this enduring era of design: midcentury modern homes, interior design, graphic design, and illustration, as well as the iconic personalities. We might all recognize the names--Charles and Ray Eames, Farnsworth House, the Egg Chair, Henningsen, Elrod House, the case study houses--but what are their stories? This book delves right into the facts and does so light-heartedly. We learn of the grand inspirations, or sometimes (it turns out) the very simplest of ideas, which fueled these Goliaths of midcentury modern design. The only downside: with your newfound design-savvy, you won't be able to look at your IKEA chairs the same way again. 650 0 Design|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Midcentury modern (Architecture) 650 0 Interior decoration|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Furniture design|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Furniture industry and trade|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Designers|vBiography. 650 0 Architects|vBiography. 700 1 Jay, Tom,|eillustrator.
