Another fabulous bound volume of...



Arts & Decoration
(Sorry about the 'orrible, skinny image; I'm using a handheld scanner.)

This volume was apparently much, too much and just too very, very to ever stay in the University of Redlands' library.

• Janet Flanner on Chareau's glass house in Paris
• Mrs. Leopold Stowkowski's dressing table
• Russel Wright's piano design for the Wurlitzer company's exhibition at the world's fair! (Hmmm, wonder if THAT will ever show up on eBay?!)




• Philip Johnson's "All Mies van der Rohe All the Time" New York apartment you'll faint, it's so cool!
• An incredible Richard Neutra living room which looks like a set from a German Expressionist musical




• An ode to bakelite and other "substances... fusing beauty with utility in the modern style."
• Dorothy Whitney musing about '80 style... the 1880s, natch...
• An incredible pictorial on lighting, featuring a Lalique WALL in the Paris apartment of Mrs. Reginald Fellows!!! (Please tell me that still exists!)





• PLUS: Mr. & Mrs. Diego Rivera's digs, designed by Juan O'Gorman-- I'm feeling faint!
