Architects have designed some of the most iconic items of furniture. This AD features ingenious architect-protagonists of this genre and explores the recent history and chronology of architectural involvement in the discipline.

Furniture augments architect-designed environments, contributing to the holistic ambience of a space and displaying in microcosm architects’ preoccupations with material palettes, haptic sensitivities, and structural invention. It can take the form of props for commercial purposes, including business meetings and offices, for spaces susceptible to the weather, or for convivial, domestic settings. Whatever the programmatic imperative, architects have contributed in the most aesthetic ways. This issue honors some of the best.
