A bit about the designer:
Donald Deskey (1894-1989) was an American industrial designer who helped establish industrial design as a profession. Around 1926, Deskey began to design furniture, lighting, and interiors. His inventive use of industrial materials for decorative purposes brought him acclaim and caught the attention of the Rockefellar Center, Inc., which in 1932 awarded him a large contract for the interior decoration and furnishings for Radio City Music Hall. The extraordinary results of this project helped the designer launch Donald Deskey Associates as a major consulting firm.
