An important monograph on the work of the furniture designer Diego Giacometti. The book was published to coincide with an exhibition at the Galerie L'Arc en Seine in Paris. It is one of the only books on the designer to extensively illustrate his works in colour, thereby revealing the importance Diego placed on patina. The essays examine his artistic style, his relationship with his brother Alberto, and the work they produced for Jean-Michel Frank.
