Publisher Description: - Comprehensive monograph on innovative and award-winning designer Eva Maddox, a pioneer in branding interior spaces and custom patterning. - Traces Maddox's career from its early days to her independent practice to her partnership with the global architecture firm Perkins + Will.Award-winning designer Eva Maddox has been described as a "change agent" and a "visionary design theorist and practitioner who has reshaped the interior design profession and raised the standards of commercial design and architecture." This fascinating monograph traces her creative journey from a tiny town in rural Tennessee to her own renowned firm, Eva Maddox Associates, to a dedicated branding studio within the international architectural practice Perkins + Will. Profusely illustrated with sketches, plans, source material, and color photography, the book includes 35 major projects: colleges, hospitals, financial institutions, company headquarters, libraries, museums, showrooms, and retail establishments, culminating in a series of designs for furniture and workspace giant Haworth.
