Handcrafted Modern: At Home with Midcentury Designers
by Leslie Williamson (Rizzoli, 2010)

Rather than polished interiors, it offers an intimate look into the homes and studios of midcentury designers like Wharton Esherick and George Nakashima. Spaces shaped by daily rituals, tools left in place, light moving across wood worn by time.

The rooms feel like self-portraits. Built around process, material, and a deep respect for making. It’s a quiet reminder that spaces hold narratives, and that the way we live with objects says something about who we are.
