ywft has some good ones but anyone know of any good books featuring work by the eames' and knoll etc?

eames' and knoll? that's so last milleniumish. please visit the ICFF or milan for a furniture show.

there must be so many on Eames. I love their work. It's timeless. Also check out Jean Prouve.
regarding the contemporary, ICFF is a really bad show. Salone Internazionale del Mobile was amazing when i visited 2yrs ago.

mid century is my thing, the newer stuff is cool too but im more into mid ( last ) century. Although if you could recommend some newer work I should look at I'd really appreciate it. thanks.

My friend and I were just talking about furniture and furniture books today at work. I’m going to have to check out some of these books when I get a chance. The book he told me about is 1000 chairs and it looks pretty dope.
