Rustic furniture is showing up in the most unusual places. It stands in the midst of the most modern furniture in a place of honor as a piece of folk art or sculpture. This one-time country mainstay, now graces the most elegant apartments of New York City or Beverly Hills. Larry Hawkins is one of the leading producers of twig mosaic furniture, a variety of the rustic motif that utilizes the great variety of color and texture in the bark of twigs and trees to create wonderful patterns on the furniture surfaces. The results are fantastic creations, destined to take a predominant place in any room setting. Larry takes the reader/craftsman step-by-step through the process of making a three drawer chest. The techniques learned along the way can be applied to any number of furniture forms, many of which are shown in the gallery. Every step is illustrated with a full color photograph and a precise description of the processes involved.

Hard Facts about Soft Machines: The Ergonomics of Seating
Although work furniture has had so much more attention recently there is a long way to go before this is translated into action in the wider world. Increased international concern for the health and safety of people at work is one of the driving forces behind this book.&#x3b; The Science of Seating brings together researchers in ergonomics and posture with industrial designers, to review and assess the current state of chair design, with implications for cultural, behavioural and occupational aspects of health. The contributions are a significant step in the science of seating and should lead to a better understanding of the mechanics, dynamics and the effects of seating on the sitter.&#x3b; They point to ways in which seats might become easier-to-use and adjust, offering both comfort and postural support without compromising freedom of movement: and in the not-too-distant furture, "the intelligent chair" will "remember" the sitter's preferences for position, cushiness and so on.&#x3b; Topics covered include: Adjustability, Anthropometics, Posture, Back Pain, Biomechanics, Seat Pressure Distributions, School children, Special Needs of Users, Design Applications, Industry Perspectives, VDT Standards.&#x3b; It is aimed at researchers and practising seating designers, ergonomists, design engineers, occupational health workers and physiotherapists and furniture manufacturers.
