Designed in 1929 and completed in 1930, this rare, bespoke bedroom,
created for the seventeen-year-old Elaine Wormser, embodies the
skillful blend of Viennese artistic influences, sleek modern
finishes, daring colour and pattern that marked all of the artist's
greatest achievements. The interior, whose elements are held by the
Cincinnati Art Museum, has never been fully researched, published
or displayed before now. Five essays, accompanied by full colour
illustrations, unlock the narratives and significance of this
important historic interior. Joseph Urban arrived in Boston in
1911; he lived and worked in the United States for the rest of his
life. Over the next twenty-two years, he would become one of the
nation's most important and celebrated designers, at the forefront
of American modernism, doing as much as anyone to shape its
distinctive face. His iconic designs include the New School for
Social Research, New York, 1930; the colour direction for the 1933
World's Fair; and the Mar-a-Lago estate, Palm Beach, Florida, 1926
for E. F Hutton and Marjorie Merriweather Post.
