Description A history of the origin, design and manufacture of the chair, as well as an explication of its place in our culture. Chair discusses and provides images of many iconic chairs, including the Eames Lounge chair, Verner Panton's S Chair, the Aeron office chair and Van Gogh's chair.

Publisher Description

The chair: we sit on one every day in our homes, schools and offices. Yet how often do we think about the origins of the chair and its place in culture? After all, the human body is more suited to sitting on the ground than on a chair, and some chairs even cause back problems. But in Western culture, the chair is an object that marks our place in the modern world. In this book Anne Massey provides an anatomy of the chair and looks at how we interact with others in predetermined ways when seated.
