For centuries, architects have turned their hand to custom furniture in a practice that has resulted in a number of iconic designs, including the timeless Eames Lounge and Ottoman and the ubiquitous Barcelona chair created by Mies van der Rohe for his acclaimed Barcelona Pavilion. Furniture by Architects beautifully illustrates bespoke design by some of the world’s leading architects, who are increasingly designing furniture as clients seek interiors customised to specific needs. Foster + Partners’ 520 Armchair for Walter Knoll has the texture and comfort found in a traditional leather armchair, while the Liquid Glacial Dining & Coffee Table by Zaha Hadid Design, made from polished clear Plexiglas, capture the spirit of her architecture, with their distinctive fluid lines, revealing the waves and ripples below the surface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this personal and revealing book, Anthony Poon takes us on a creative journey that begins with his re-envisioning of a seaside public space as a very young architect. Poon has designed hundreds of buildings across the United States and internationally, from eco-friendly homes to public schools, from intimate retail venues and restaurants to sports arenas, from university housing to retreats and places of worship. Sticks & Stones / Steel & Glass takes us inside a purposive yet open mind always hoping to “design it all,” to weave together light and material, culture and commerce, music and design, a good meal and the joy of gathering to share it. In these pages we engage the creative processes of a thoughtful and intense architect whose works—public and private—all strive to enhance his clients’ stories and identities. Poon’s goal in each commission is to reward those who will enjoy and inhabit the structures he designs. In every building designed by Anthony Poon art is shelter and architecture is a social good.

This revised edition features 16 new pages on the additions to the campus and many updated entries with new photography.
