The Chair: Rethinking Culture, Body, and Design

by Galen Cranz

"[A]nyone interested in furniture design-or, indeed, design in general-would benefit from this lively yet thoughtful treatise." -Michael Graves

"Cranz continues to occupy an unusal and valuable position at the forefront of our field, owing to the creative connections she establishes between architecture and related disciplines. . . . She makes the connections with grace and dexterity, maneuvering agilely between areas of thought not usually linked." -Denise Scott Brown
