The 20th century was remarkably fertile ground for residential architecture in the US, producing such icons of modern building as the Greene brothers' Gamble House in Pasadena (1908), Eliel Saarinen's 1929 residence at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, and Michael Graves' neo-classical villa in New Jersey.

Shaker is an illustrated exploration of the unique lifestyle of the American Shaker celibate religious communities founded in the 18th century by an English Quaker, Ann Lee. A major feature of Shaker life was the emphasis on self-sufficientcy: houses, farm buildings, furniture, tools, utensils, clothes and textiles - all were hand-made according to a craft tradition that linked form and function with godly virtues of plainess, simplicity and fitness. The beautiful objects that resulted are not only now highly valued as collector's pieces but also as sources of inspiration for contemporary design-makers.

The painter, sculptor, author, filmmaker, and all-around entertainer Salvador Dalí (1904–1989) was one of the greatest exhibitionists and eccentrics of the 20th century. He was among the first to apply insights from Freudian psychoanalysis to art and is celebrated primarily for his surrealist works. Iconic images such as the melting clocks and the lobster telephone have become symbols of surrealism and modernity. Dalí often referred to his paintings as "hand-painted dream photographs." Their fascination and inherent tension arise from the precise depiction of bizarre elements and incongruous arrangements. Dalí painted, as he said, with the "imperialist frenzy of precision," but only "to systematize confusion and thereby completely discredit the world of reality." The mustachioed Dalí revolutionized the role of the artist by polarizing audiences with his public appearances and creating a body of work that can be consumed in various ways beyond gallery walls. This volume presents Dalí's work and personality, illuminating his provocative compositions centered around themes of death, decay, and eroticism.
