A reaction to the disposable, mass-produced furniture born of the Industrial Revolution, custom designed studio and bespoke furniture has been around for many decades. Those who appreciate handcrafted excellence find this furniture adds richness and texture to interior design. This is substantial furniture that provides a satisfying visual and tactile impact. The experienced artisans who produce these useful works of art add handcrafted beauty to every piece. One hundred one artisans' works are presented here from throughout the United States and around the world. Over 640 brilliant color photos reveal the unique and useful art objects each artisan creates to the readers. The engrossing text introduces readers to each of the artisans and their intentions. Readers will also find contact information for the artisans, their studios, and galleries. Three experts, Gary Inman, Thomas Throop, and Lewis Wexler, also contributed to the text. AUTHOR: E. Ashley Rooney has written widely in the field of architecture and design. Gary Inman is director of the Hotel and Home Design Studio at Glave and Holmes Architecture in Richmond. Thomas Throop has been designing and making one-off furniture for nearly 20 years. Lewis Wexler is the owner of Wexler Gallery in Philadelphia.
