"[T]his book demonstrates that the spare, modernist designs of the last century translate perfectly for the homes of this one." — Art of the Times
"500 carefully selected designs that also include the most up-to-date pieces that constitute the current revival in Nordic design….Recommended." — CHOICE
"[E]xcellent…[P]lenty of context…to appreciate how Scandinavian furniture defined a past era, and how it will likely define the future" — Sandy McLendon, Modernism Magazine
