More than 50 years later, Mid-Century Modern design has proven its enduring appeal. The characteristics of this period inspire today's product designers; furniture and objects are increasingly brought back into production; and the overall aesthetic is replicated and loved in homes around the world. This book offers a fresh perspective on the popular movement, examining its distinctive style through the lens of the designers who helped to define it.

Organised alphabetically by name, the book showcases the work of 300 influential designers - from popular icons to lesser-known figures - presenting an expansive, richly illustrated portrait of Mid-Century Modernism across the globe.
