Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When did sofas become so sexy and why?
Contemporary furniture design has enjoyed growing international popularity in the last fifteen years. The Furniture Machine looks at the major trends and designers of this period, including Philippe Starck, Ron Arad and Marc Newson, to unravel the workings of the furniture industry since 1990.
Attention is also given to the innovations of Italian manufacturers, such as Cappellini and B&B Italia, and the increasing influence of conceptual design, from the theoretical proposals of Droog Design to the commercial products of Moooi.
