A compact yet richly detailed celebration of 20th century lighting design, 1000 Lights brings together more than 1,000 influential lamps and luminaires in a beautifully edited visual reference. Arranged chronologically by decade, the book traces the evolution of electric lighting from Tiffany's leaded glass to expressive designs of the 1960s and 1970s and the latest high tech LED creations.
Edited by renowned design authors Charlotte and Peter Fiell, this TASCHEN volume spans Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, the Modern Movement, De Stijl, postwar design, Pop, Radical, Postmodern, and Contemporary styles. Its multilingual English, French, and German edition makes an elegant addition to a design library, coffee table, or collector's shelf.
