In recent years, the decorative furnishings niche has become of tremendous interest to collectors, causing a surge in the auction market and bringing record sales. Chosen by design expert Frédéric Chambre, this selection of furniture designs unspools like the frames of a film, an epic picture composed of one hundred years of creative innovations in form, materials, and techniques. As in art history, themes can be traced across changing trends: design versus the machine, design versus craft, design versus art—a story that continues to unfold. This hand-bound oversize luxury edition traces the development of twentieth-century design from the Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts movements through Bauhaus and Art Deco, Pop Art and the Memphis school, to today’s digital age, illustrating the dynamic story of a groundbreaking century through the evolution of everyday human objects.
Complimentary white gloves and signature canvas tote bag are included with each purchase from Assouline's Ultimate Collection

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
- Handle with Clean, Dry Hands: Always use clean, dry hands when handling your book to avoid transferring oils or dirt onto the pages and cover.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading or discoloration of the cover and pages.
- Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Humidity and moisture can damage both the paper and binding. Store books upright on a flat surface, away from heat sources.
- Dust Regularly: Use a soft, dry cloth or feather duster to gently remove dust from the cover and page edges.
- Use Caution When Opening: Do not force the spine flat, especially on new books, as this may damage the binding.
- Keep Away from Liquids and Food: Avoid placing books near food or beverages to prevent spills and stains.
