    If you want to take your interior design practice to a new level, this is the book for you. The whole world would work a lot better if there were more interdisciplinary books like this one. In the same way that Jonathan Hale opened up the world of architecture for the non-architect in “The Old Way of Seeing”, Christopher Natale empowers the interior designer to serve clients with a whole new arsenal of insider knowledge. With clear language and intuitive visual flow as clever as a Chinese box, Natale explains the inner workings of furniture and shows you how the subtle marks of good design and construction can have a huge influence on the surrounding space. You’ll never look at furniture the same way again after reading Furniture Design and Construction for the Interior Designer. You’ll discover how the right furniture, rightly designed and built, can transform a space instead of just filling it. Your recommendations will carry a new artistic power and technical authority. This is a reference tool that both the professional and the non-professional enthusiast will want to return to again and again for inspiration in the art and craft of improving the interior environment.
