Plus: How To Talk To A Client SCHROEDER, Francis de N. [96] pp. Whitney Publications, Inc 1951 Second Edition 10 1/4" x 9 1/4" Bookplate of Lucien Therrien Jacket design by Alvin L ustig VG/ VG Scroll Down for (9) Additional Scans: Journalist and art critic Schroeder was the editor of INTERIORS from 1941 until his death in 1952, documenting the midcentury modern revolution in industrial and interior design.

They will apply just as well to a Louis XV bergère as to a chromium and rawhide chair; to a quick lunch counter as to an office desk; to a Victorian love seat as to a park bench.” The second half, “How to Talk to a Client,” provides practical advice on the pursuit, cultivation, and management of design clients: “It is possible to have a client give final approval to finished drawing without the use of alcohol, but it is apparently seldom done.” Show more
