註釋A comprehensive look at the history, elements of construction, and all the steps in furniture design from an expert in the industry.

Elements of Furniture Design is a resource of information gathered from 30 years of working as a professional furnituredesigner. These elements of design are essential, and there is no other resource where they are available in one place. The reader willgain a comprehensive knowledge of how furniture is designed, and can usethis information to create new and exciting design concepts. This knowledge is provided in four sections:

* A brief history and quick designer references (woods, veneers, woodjoinery, comfort, architectural references, and drawing tools)
* Illustrating furniture construction
* Historic ornament used on furniture (molding, turning, carving)
* The typical design process with a new client

The work of cabinetmaker Thomas Day (a free man of color in the South in the mid-1800s) is used to tie the storytogether, and the reader will learn trade secrets of furniture design that have been lost to outsourcing and offshore manufacture.
