5.0 out of 5 stars Total Design, July 13, 2001

This review is from: The Furniture of R.M. Schindler (Paperback)

What is fantastic about this book is it's emphasis on furniture design as part of the total architecural environment- a belief Schindler shared with other masters of modern architecture. The book tells the stories of the wonderful pieces of sculptural furniture that Schindler designed for his projects and includes his sketches as well as numerous photos- old black and whites which have the charm of an old Hollywood movie and provide an appropriate backdrop to the innovative thinking of Schindler at such a transitional time in architectural history. Also included are essays and articles written by Schindler about his design beliefs. Loved it!
