hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Condizione: Used - Very Good. During the years of the Great Depression in America, modernist designers developed products and lifestyle concepts intended for middle-class--not elite--consumers. In this remarkable book, Kristina Wilson coins the term 'livable modernism' to describe this school of design. Livable modernism combined International Style functional efficiency and sophistication with a respect for consumers' desires for physical and psychological comfort. Wilson offers a new view of many popular designs for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms of the 1930s and investigates the remarkable marketing savvy of the furniture and decorative arts companies of the day. As the first study of the advertising and retailing of modern design during the Depression years, 'Livable Modernism 'also' 'features an extensive array of vintage advertisements from such popular magazines as 'House Beautiful 'and' Ladies' Home Journal.' Engagingly written and handsomely designed, 'Livable Modernism is 'an essential book for anyone interested in modern furniture and decorative arts. The author demonstrates that the work of these designers--including Russel Wright, Donald Deskey, and Gilbert Rohde--paved the way for Charles and Ray Eames and other post-World War II designers, and that the importance of their philosophies, innovations, and influence has until now been underappreciated. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks. wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector.
