Hardcover 1018 pages, 310 x 235 mm, Illustrated. ISBN 9783931936990. the Vitra Design Museum publishes the »Atlas of Furniture Design«, a new comprehensive overview on the history of modern furniture design. With more than 1,000 pages, the »Atlas« is the most extensive book ever to be published on the topic. It documents 1,740 objects by over 540 designers, and features more than 2,800 illustrations, from object photographs to design sketches and interiors as well as patents, brochures, art, architecture, and portraits of the designers. The Vitra Design Museum collection, which counts among the world?s largest of its kind with upwards of 20,000 objects, including over 7,000 pieces of furniture, serves as the basis for »Atlas of Furniture Design«. The publication includes works by the most significant designers of the past 230 years and documents all important stages of design history. This includes 19th century furniture made out of bentwood and metal, Art Nouveau and Secession style designs, iconic designs by protagonists of modernism such as Le Corbusier, Gerrit Rietveld, Charlotte Perriand, Marcel Breuer, and Eileen Gray, but also post-war, post-modern, and contemporary furniture by designers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Eero Saarinen, Gae Aulenti, Finn Juhl, Ettore Sottsass, Philippe Starck, Hella Jongerius, Jasper Morrison, and Konstantin Grcic. The »Atlas of Furniture Design« is the product of over 20 years of research at the Vitra Design Museum and was compiled by a team of more than 70 authors. It contains comprehensive essays on the socio-cultural and design-historical contexts of furniture design, over 550 detailed texts on pioneering objects, and numerous information graphics that provide new visual insights into the history of furniture design. Furthermore, the book contains a complete appendix that includes designer biographies, bibliographies, a glossary of producers and materials, as well as a keyword index. These features make this publication an encyclopedic reference guide and indispensable resource for collectors, scholars, and experts, and without a doubt a book to be treasured by design lovers all over the world. »The Atlas of Furniture Design is a treasure trove that offers not only definitive information about beloved staples of design history, but also new, fresh and often unexpected perspectives, all presented in a generous format that captures the breadth and depth of this important subject.« Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator of Architecture and Design, The Museum of Modern Art Mateo Kries, director of the Vitra Design Museum and co-editor of the publication, explains: »The Atlas paints a portrait of our entire collection while simultaneously providing an unprecedented overview of the history of modern furniture. The publication is set up to provide a new comprehensive outline for scholars of furniture design by considering the latest academic research, questioning extant knowledge, and giving top experts a platform to share their ideas. The book touches on a range of subjects spanning the beginnings of industrialization to digitalization, which is becoming increasingly influential in contemporary furniture design. Whether as a selection of iconic designs or as a history of styles, a chronicle of evolution or of revolution, a history of objects or of images, or a narrative of domestic habits or of individual designers, this book can be read in a vast range of ways. But the »Atlas of Furniture Design« can also be enjoyed by readers who prefer to dispense with complex theories and just want to concentrate on each single object.«

Folio in color illus jacket; 271 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 31 cm ; bibliographical references (pages 268-270). Excellent color photo reproductions of some of the finisest furniture designers and makers in the US. The book covers quite a spectrum! Remarkable. || "In the current world of twentieth-century design collecting, the trend has shifted away from accessible, mass manufactured modernist furniture and toward designs that were custom-made or produced in very limited editions, with emphasis on American studio design of the 1940s to the 1990s. In contrast to the mass produced mid-century furniture by Knoll and Herman Miller, American studio designs of the same period focused on novel forms and exquisite craftsmanship. Ranging from the organic shapes of George Nakashima and Vladimir Kagan to metalworks by Paul Evans, these limited production designs were highly sought after in their days by original tastemakers and movie stars. In the last decade, a revival for these rare designs began with connoisseurs such as Tom Ford." "Modern Americana is the first full survey of the designs of this prolific but forgotten period, bringing to life again the works of Samuel Marx, Billy Haines, Wendell Castle, T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Karl Springer, James Mont, and many others."--Jacket. || Contents: The studio artisans: J.B.

Gute Exemplare; geringe Lagerspuren; ohne Beschriftungen. - Photo-Hoffmann = Heinrich Hoffmann (* 12. September 1885 in Fürth; † 16. Dezember 1957 in München) war ein deutscher Fotograf, nationalsozialistischer Politiker und Herausgeber, der als Fotograf Adolf Hitlers bekannt wurde. Mit seiner fotografischen und verlegerischen Tätigkeit hatte er einen entscheidenden Anteil am Auf- und Ausbau der NS-Propaganda und der „Etablierung des Führermythos“. ...

Speisesaal; Karte Nr. 470. --- Der Berghof in Obersalzberg war ein Landhaus und spätestens ab 1936 der private Wohnsitz Adolf Hitlers. Er wurde 1916 als Landhaus Wachenfeld für einen norddeutschen Kaufmann errichtet. Ab 1928 war das Landhaus Hitlers gemietetes Feriendomizil. Nach der Machtübernahme 1933 kaufte er es und ließ es nach und nach anfangs vom Architekten Alois Degano, dann von Roderich Fick zum Berghof, seiner repräsentativen Residenz, ausbauen. Er bildete dann den Kern des Führersperrgebietes Obersalzberg, das mit dem Bau der "Kleinen Reichskanzlei" 1937 und dem Flughafen Reichenhall-Berchtesgaden als zweiter Regierungssitz zu einem zentralen Ort der Macht im nationalsozialistischen Deutschen Reich wurde. Insgesamt verbrachte Hitler etwa ein Drittel seiner Regierungszeit auf dem Berghof, also zusammengerechnet fast vier Jahre. Internationale Diplomaten und Politiker kamen zu Verhandlungen zum Berghof. Das Gebäude wurde kurz vor Kriegsende durch einen alliierten Luftangriff schwer beschädigt. 1952 ließ der Freistaat Bayern das Gebäude sprengen. Die unweit vom ehemaligen Berghofgelände befindliche Dokumentation Obersalzberg stellt insbesondere die Verbindung von örtlicher und gesamter NS-Zeitgeschichte her. … (wiki)
