Most importantly, he was a man committed to the integration of his work, his daily life and the natural world. the artist, exploring the philosophical ideas that lie beneath his work. Told by his daughter, colleague and successor, designer Mira Nakashima, this book presents the development of an artist and his profound influence on contemporary design., Acclaimed furniture designer George Nakashima (1905-1990) made boldly original pieces prized for their superb craftsmanship and their organic use of the natural lines and grain of wood. Today his beautiful creations are avidly sought by private collectors and are housed in museum collections all over the world. This survey of Nakashima's life and work written by his daughter, the noted designer Mira Nakashima is the most revealing look we have ever had at this woodworking genius and his profound influence on contemporary design.

In exploring his personal and philosophic journey, Mira Nakashima provides a remarkable look at the development of an artist whose reverence for nature was at the heart of his creative work.
