Excellent condition, Hardcover, 2017, Phaidon Press, 272 pages, 300 illustrations. Edited by Elizabeth Beer and Brian Janusiak with an essay by Pilar Viladas and a forward by John Pawson. This is the first and only comprehensive monograph covering the full breadth of Ward Bennett's career, bringing to life his work through previously unpublished material, including an interview with Bennett.
Ward Bennett (1917-2003) was a leading American designer whose career spanned more than five decades. Born in New York, he left home at thirteen and got his start in the city's garment district. He eventually left the fashion world and began to reinvent himself as the Ward Bennett we know today: designing architecture, interiors, furniture, textiles, and objects, all with his vision for simple form paired with elegant materials. His work earned him some of the day's most influential clients: David Rockefeller and Chase Manhattan Bank, Gianni and Marella Agnelli, Tiffany & Co., and Rolling Stone magazine co-founders and publishers Jann and Jane Wenner, among others. Even after his death, his signature rich minimalism continues to be recognized, awarded, and celebrated.
