A brief history and quick designer references (woods, veneers, wood joinery, comfort, architectural references, and drawing tools) . Illustrating furniture construction . Historic ornament used on furniture (molding, turning, carving) . The typical design process with a new client The work of cabinetmaker Thomas Day (a free man of color in the South in the mid-1800s) is used to tie the story together, and the reader will learn trade secrets of furniture design that have been lost to outsourcing and offshore manufacture.
