Selling Good Design: Promoting the Early Modern Interior

Rating:
Summary: An Instant Classic
Review: Friedman's book is a fascinating study of the little-known collaboration between the Metropolitan Museum, the New York department stores, and the great designers of the 1920's. The text is lucidly and elegantly written; the book is illustrated with advertisements and photographs of the period. This book should be required reading for professionals, and is fully accessible for laymen.
