5.0 out of 5 stars a fantastic and informative overview of design in its age 17 July 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Having spent the last 6 years studying contemporary furniture design I have had to trawl through many contrived and opinionated books concerning the deveolpment and recognition of iconic design. Its a relief to finaly find a series of books which fairly represent not only the best of but indeferent elements of design from this period.These books clearly and beutifuly display the ideas and trends which have effected many developments in technology and styles providing an informative overview to those who work in the industry and to those who have a passhion for design.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must have for anyone collecting the genre. 13 Nov 2000
By When Worlds Collide - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book offers a glimpse into the design world of the 1960s like no other. Many vintage photos showing furniture in authentic room settings. Each section, Glass, Ceramics, Lighting, Textiles and Furniture, show the reader objects that are rarely seen anywhere else.

On the negative side, there is little detailed text on the specific objects beyond each photo's caption. The fact that many of the photographs are vintage allows for many grainy images.

That said, what this book is lacking as a text based reference guide, it more than makes up for in the shear volume of decorative items pictured.
