The 360 page book features interviews and essays from prominent names in the industry along with incredible photography, sketches, and details shots from Blu Dot’s archive. The process behind their iconic creations like the Real Good Chair are uncovered, along with two decades worth of inspiration from the company with a mission to make modern design accessible to a wider audience. In 2018, Blu Dot was awarded the prestigious Cooper Hewitt National Design Award in the ‘Product Design’ category.
