In 2019, the Vitra Design Museum will publish the Atlas of
Furniture Design, the definitive, encyclopedic overview of the
history of modern furniture design. Featuring over 1700 objects by
more than 500 designers and 121 manufacturers, it includes
approximately 2800 images ranging from detailed object photographs
to historical images documenting interiors, patents, brochures, and
related works of art and architecture. The basis for the Atlas of
Furniture Design is the collection held by the Vitra Design Museum,
one of the largest of its kind with more than 7000 works. The book
presents selected pieces by the most important designers of the
last 230 years and documents key periods in design history,
including early nineteenth-century industrial furniture in bentwood
and metal, Art Nouveau and Secessionist pieces and works by
protagonists of classical modernism and postwar design, as well as
postmodern and contemporary pieces. The Atlas of Furniture Design
employed a team of more than 70 experts and features over 550
detailed texts about key objects. In-depth essays provide
sociocultural and design-historical context to four historical
epochs of furniture design and the pieces highlighted here,
enriched by a detailed annex containing designer biographies,
glossaries, and elaborate information graphics. The Atlas of
Furniture Design is an indispensable resource for collectors,
scholars and experts, as well as a beautifully designed object that
speaks to design enthusiasts.

Built and designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe 1928â1930, the
Tugendhat House in Brno / Czech Republic is one of the most
significant buildings of European modernism. In 2001, UNESCO added
the house to the List of World Cultural Heritage Sites. In this
third, updated edition, the authors give personal and historic
insights relating to the house; also documenting aspects pertaining
to art history and conservation-science studies. The comprehensive
description and in-depth discussion of the materials used is a
special feature in this field of research. The appeal of this
monograph lies in the publication of photographs from the family
archive which, for the first time, show the house in its lived-in
condition. The experimental artistic color photographs by Fritz
Tugendhat are among the pioneering achievements of amateur
photography.
