"In the beginning people spent their days walking upright and nights lying down. Eventually someone invented sitting. And chairs. Chairs evolved ... and multiplied…" Published to accompany the Federal Award for Design Leadership, presented to Rolf Fehlbaum, CEO of Vitra, this book was created by Tibor Kalman and his design firm M&Co New York. The chunky hardback (5 x 6”) red cloth bound book is a biographical-design scrapbook, filled with images (450 colour and 20 b/w) from Fehlbaum's life, 20th century design, his collaborators and projects.
