DESCRIPTION:
Great book! Muzzy I got this for my son who loves modern design, along with 1000 Chairs (same authors) (chairs and lights are his favorite). He went nuts! Beautiful books, filled with gorgeous pictures and a lot of history. Fabulous addition to the library of anyone who loves modern design. Useful and enyable savyon941 A really good overview of many of the landmark designs in this field. This entire series is very good just to look through, as it gives you a basic background, but doesn't demand the concentration level of more advanced books. This book is a way to develop your eye for go. Response: 1000 Lights Having bought it as a gift, I got a response that it is very much appreciated. My son, being in the home lighting business, and my daughter in-law being in the home decorating business, both find the book of interest to them.Ben Salkin
