The exhibition introduces George Nelson's work, which embodied modern thought and pursued his ideas on design, from various perspectives through a diverse range of exhibits and materials, including furniture, graphics, and mock-ups.
Amidst a renewed appreciation for George Nelson, BUILDING is hosting the third event in a row, following the previous two years, featuring furniture designed by Nelson.
This year's "GEORGE NELSON IN THE BUILDING" features over 40 items, more than double last year's selection, focusing on original pieces that are now difficult to obtain. All items can be touched, sat on, and purchased. It's a valuable event to experience the charm of George Nelson more intimately.
