 mises to make a major contribution to the field\, tracing the developments
  of George Nakashima's early years as he began to form his unique vision. 
 While many people know Nakashima's mature work\, the striking natural wood
  forms with raw edges and organic shapes\, few are aware of his beginnings
  and the evolutionary thinking that informed his original woodworking.\nTr
 ained as an architect\, Nakashima produced work in this early period that 
 laid the foundation for his transformation into a master woodworker and fu
 rniture designer.&nbsp\;<strong>"Early Furniture by George Nakashima\, 193
 6-1956: The Architect Designs"</strong>&nbsp\;provides an insightful under
 standing of the innovative furniture designs that led to Nakashima's initi
 al success and to his international recognition in the worlds of art and d
 esign\, during his lifetime and since his death in 1990.\nOne of the truly
  formative furniture designers of the 20th Century\, George Nakashima led 
 the way and influenced all who came after him by forging a unique and unpr
 ecedented body of work. He is a central figure in "reinventing design" in 
 the 20th Century\n\n<strong>For more info see<em><a href="http://www.moder
