THIS is what a book on midcentury modern interior design should look like. It shows the close relationship between the evolution of architecture, interior, and furniture design in midcentury modernism. It also showcases how numerous iconic homes have been transformed over the years by their owners who have managed to maintain the midcentury ideal and aesthetic while responding to the ever changing needs of our contemporary lifestyles. Too bad it's out of print. This book is a must-have for any serious lover of midcentury modern architecture, furniture, and interior design.
