Sobre este artículo
New York: Kodansha International Ltd, 1981. Fine in fine jacket.. Signed first edition of the architect and furniture designer's stunningly illustrated autobiography. Nakashima's discussion of his artistic development covers his childhood in the Pacific Northwest; youthful travels and work in Paris and Tokyo; wartime internment in Idaho; and eventual construction of his studio and workshop in New Hope, Pennsylvania, now designated a National Historic Landmark. Additional chapters explore his design philosophy and the technical aspects of woodworking, materials selection, and hand craftsmanship, illuminated by glowing color photography and Nakashima's own sketches. A gorgeous production. 11.5'' x 8.5''. Original dark red cloth with gilt-lettered spine. Brown textured endpapers. In original ($52.00) dust jacket. Illustrated throughout with line drawings by the author and photographs by G. Barrows, G.W. Holland, Dana Levy, Osamu Murai, Ezra Stoller, and Hiroshi Suga. 221, [3] pages.
