This captivating era, spanning the late 1930s to the early 1970s, was a remarkable period for objects and furniture in the home. Post-war optimism, combined with innovative manufacturing methods and material techniques, resulted in an explosion of new design and coveted objects. The enduring appeal of mid-century modern remains as strong as ever, with a growing demand for classic designs, as well as rare and hard-to-find pieces from lesser-known designers. While numerous books have explored the style, none have specifically catered to the expanding collectors market in mid-century modern design. This definitive book aims to fill that gap, presenting hundreds of pieces in a substantial format that is ideal for reference in design libraries, studios, and private collections. Each item of furniture is meticulously profiled, illustrated in color, and accompanied by in-depth descriptive texts by Dominic Bradbury. The extensive reference section includes essays on materials such as plywood, as well as designer profiles, showcasing the work of influential talents alongside lesser-known pieces by Piet Hein, Bruno Mathsson, Lina Bo Bardi, and Alexander Girard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2598g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 239 x 291 x 42 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780500022221\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dominic Bradbury","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105235562746,"sku":"9780500022221","price":39.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665741774589_book.jpg?v=1665818074","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/midcentury-modern-furniture-9780500022221","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
