Good Eye By Jim Tolpin & Geo. Walker, Illustrated by Keith Mitchell
Have you ever looked at an old house or beloved piece of furniture, and thought, “If only it could talk, the stories it could tell”?
That’s the inspiration behind “Good Eye”. Historic furniture can hold secrets, many of them great stories about design. Timeless lessons, like how to arrange spaces to avoid a static look, or insights on proportions that can add life to a design. Other lessons show how to make adjustments and small refinements that resonate. Good Eye looks at ornament, and how if used thoughtfully can add a sense of playfulness to a design. There are lessons that can finally help you to get comfortable, even confident, working with curves.
Here’s the best part: Those stories, those lessons, aren’t just quaint echoes from the past. They offer inspiration for today’s builder. So whether you want to design a kitchen island, garden bench, coffee table, or a stand for your vinyl record collection, “Good Eye” offers valuable insights to fuel your ideas.
