Mid-Century Modern : Icons of Design
Of course one of the defining characteristics of mid-century style is that it was all about form rather than decoration and detail. This leads the way to the illustrations in this book making the pieces easily identifiable through a simple block colour and outline style. Collected with the book are the icons of the period from the DCW chair by Charles and ray Eames to the Dieter Rams shelving system for Vitsoe and Arne Jacobsen's series 7 chair for Fritz Hansen. Each double page spread has an illustration of the piece in question together with a short text about it.
