- Thames & Hudson 2018
- 240: ill. 21.84 x 3.3 x 26.42 cm
Through the painstaking work of deconstructing and reducing chairs to their constituent parts, Chair Anatomy gets to the heart of more than fifty iconic designs: how pieces were designed and produced to fit together; why a certain material imparts a certain quality, functional advance, or comfort level; how the chair’s structure can withstand stress while being elegant and economical to produce.
