The Furniture of Carlo Mollino

Description

Carlo Mollino was one of the most inspired architects and designers of the 20th century, but never the subject of a solo monograph. Until now. The <i>Furniture of Carlo Mollino</i> features 400 sketches, drawings and photographs, many never before published. In the first of three sections, the authors examine influences on Mollino’s work: For example, he sidelined in aeronautics, automobile design, photography, set design and women’s fashion. Next, 150 glossy pages of lightly captioned images speak for themselves. A reference guide concludes with an extensive chronology of his interiors and furniture, as well as a bibliography for further exploration. Not for the lighthearted, this compre-hensive book is reserved for readers with a serious interest in the history of design and the making of a legend. (via Elements of Living)
