Michigan Modern

This monograph presents 34 selected projects carefully
documented to record its place in art history and the story behind both
its architect and client. One breathtaking view after another invites
readers to enter what are often private realms not open to the public,
to explore the innovative and cutting-edge design solutions presented on
these pages. With 300 pages and 227 color images, Michigan Modern: An
Architectural Legacy will appeal to a wide audience beyond professional
designers, art scholars and cultural historians. Indeed, it would be
hard for anyone to resist the magnificent buildings and interiors chosen
for this publication. This book may well be remembered for raising the
public's awareness and appreciation of early Modern architecture and
interior design in Michigan and the nation, inspiring many communities
to protect and preserve them in the coming years. It may also convince
the nation and the world to learn more about the vibrant design culture
that thrives to this day in the State of Michigan.
