5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference, some hard-to-find information in here too., May 14, 2006
By exphys2000 "exphys2000" (New York United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Construct Rietveld Furniture (Dutch Edition) (Paperback)
Want to see the original drawings for the Red-Blue Chair? Or find a little-known fact about one of designs of Gerrit Rietveld that normally would require examination of an original or a long conversation with someone from Christies? And then, maybe, actually build the piece yourself? This is the book to get. It's not enclyclopedic, though, so make sure that what you are interested in is present in the 50-or-so works here. Also has some terrific old photographs of the workshop, original installations, lines, and advertising.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really neat and worthless projects, January 27, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Construct Rietveld Furniture (Dutch Edition) (Paperback)
If you are into Rietveld and Modernist things, this is a great resource. Of course, the end product is almost purely worthless since they cannot be marketed (copyright still applies), sometimes involving a fair amount of effort, and are generally uncomfortable and a little fragile, but as objects, they are fantastic and great fun.

Would like to find a comparable book on the work of Max Bill.
