Includes biographies of their principals and an introduction by Stanley Abercrombie. Donald Powell and Robert Kleinschmidt, partners in their eponymous, preeminent Chicago interior design firm, are identified here loosely as disciples of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and, perhaps more importantly, as apprentices early in their careers at the influential architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Includes a photographic record of their projects with models, drawings, and commentary followed by list of their total works during the period. Protected in a clear Brodart dust jacket cover.
