Résumé:

What is modern about Modern design? Most books end the discussion of Modernism in the mid-twentieth century; this one shows how it has been reborn and transformed in the last sixty years and today is being created in fresh, original, and technologically innovative forms that are iconic and quirky, innovative and nostalgic, technologically daring and warmly familiar.
