Few designers did more to influence the appearance of postwar American interiors than the furniture designer Gilbert Rohde (1894–1944). This first in-depth book on Rohde explores how he brought an industrial design perspective to the furniture industry and, in the process, introduced modernism to a broad range of Americans, especially through his modular furnishings.
The pioneering modernist Gilbert Rohde was an innovative designer of furniture and interiors who attained near celebrity status across the United States in the 1930s and early '40s.
