April.19.2008 Florence Knoll

I've recently renovated a modern house in Mexico City and during the cleaning process I came across a Mexican 'construction' trade magazine from the late 60s extolling the virtues of the modern design that is so much in demand at the moment.
This is the first of five entries taken from that spread in Esia Magazine. This one has a quote from Florence Knoll that says, "A good design is the sum of the experience of a designer."
