The work is useful, perhaps, for the antiques collector, art history or design student, indeed the modern interior designer looking for the timeless inspiration of the "modern" of pre-war Germany. These designs have stood the test of time,and remain relevant looking today. Publisher Julius Hoffman produced works on design, including Jugendstil and Bauhaus, and continued publishing in this space into the late twentieth century. A really beautiful book.
