Description:

The comprehensive guide to furniture design— expanded and updated
Furniture designers draw on a range of knowledge and disciplines to create their work. From history to theory to technology,     Furniture Design     offers a comprehensive survey of the essential craft- and practice-related aspects of furniture design.
Generously illustrated with photographs and drawings—including a new color section—this     Second Edition     features updated coverage of material specifications, green design, digital design, and fabrication technologies. It also features twenty-five case studies of furniture design that represent a broad selection of works, designers, and techniques, including recent designs produced within the last decade.
The book explores:

[*]         Furniture function and social use
[*]         Form, spatial organization, and typological orders
[*]         Structural integrity and composition
[*]         Accessibility, universal design, human factors, and ergonomics
[*]         The design process, from schematics through fabrication
[*]         Materials, processes, and methods of fabrication
[*]         Professional practice and marketing
[*]         The history of furniture design, from prehistory to the digital age     

Complete with a glossary of terms and a comprehensive bibliography,     Furniture Design, Second Edition     is a one-stop resource that furniture designers will turn to regularly for the advice, guidance, and information needed to perform their craft.
