About this title

Synopsis

How to build beautiful, functional wood furniture--from initial design through finished masterwork.

From the Back Cover

Furniture by Design is a project book for the woodworker, but one that goes beyond traditional woodworking manuals to teach design concepts through carefully selected, hands-on projects that woodworkers build themselves.
This book is for the woodworker who is not content merely to build from preset plans; instead, it offers projects that will show how the designs originate and take shape, giving the woodworker the freedom to build anything, with or without plans. The book presents a dozen different pieces of furniture, each illustrated with detailed line drawings and each final product pictured in full color. Every project exemplifies a different lesson in design-making the book a self-teaching course in woodworking and furniture design for amateurs and experienced woodworkers alike.
