Looking for recommendations for fundamental and quality books on chair design (and construction.) and/or other resources concerning both traditional and modern chair design.
I have an upcoming commission for a dining table and the clients added in dining chairs to match and wanting to educate myself as much as reasonably possible before the sketching process as I haven’t built much in the way of traditional dining chairs prior to this. I’m really looking forward to the opportunity and experience of the table with matching chairs and want to make a valiant attempt at both a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing chair design.
I have various furniture making centered books as that’s typically what I do, but no books that are specific to chairs and what makes chairs special and unique in design and function.
Thanks for any suggestions.
