| Title: Classic Furniture: Two Volume Set |
| Author: |
| Edition Year: 1998 |
| Cover: Hardback |
| Subject: Furniture and Accessories |
| Language: English |
| Abstract: This book is about classical furniture. Furniture constitutes another evidence to how man tries to adapt his environment to his necessities by modifying the nature around him. The basic idea maintained throughout history, when it comes to producing furnishing, is the assumption of comfort, beauty and functional character. It takes a look at the origins and causes of furniture, its close relationship with man, its categories and evolution. We then continue with an analysis of the characteristics which define a style in specific counters, at both an ornamental and a structural level and finally pass on to a study of the materials and ornamentation most commonly used in each tendency. |
