The first book on the impressive collection of George R. Kravis II, founder of the Kravis Design Center -- one of the leading collectors of modern industrial design in North America. A must-have for lovers of modern design, this is a perfect follow-up to Vintage Industrial and an accessible, but authoritative introduction to this field.

An exquisitely curated selection of 100 pieces from the Kravis Design Center's industrial design collection, this book features works by some of the most important figures in the history of design: Peter Behrens, Russel Wright, Charles and Ray Eames, George Nelson, Alexander Girard, Ettore Sottsass, and Yves Behar.
