Wright presents the first Design sale of the season, an auction comprised of more than 400 works by the 20th century's best known designers. The sale will feature American, French, Italian and Scandinavian classics along with works by Joaquin Tenrerio, Sergio Rodrigues and Jorge Zalszupin from Brazil. Works from Don Powell's acclaimed interior also stand out among the offerings in this sale; in 1985, the architect?s firm Powell/Kleinschmidt captured the Miesian aesthetic when they redesigned the interior of Powell?s home in Mies van der Rohe's landmark apartment building on Chicago's lakeshore drive. Finally, the auction boasts a selection of notable contemporary designs including works by François Bauchet, Jasper Morrison and Maarten van Severen.
