Arts & Crafts

I am glad to have seen this work by Ann Toebbe. It remembers me to some earlier interior drawings from the Arts & Crafts period done by E.J. Ruhlmann.

Born: 1974 Cincinnati, OH
Lives: Chicago, IL

E.J. Ruhlmann
born in Paris on August 28, 1879

These original renderings of Ruhlmann interiors are taken from "Harmonies" INTÉRIEURS DE RUHLMANN originally published in 1924. The individual renderings were produced from 1913 to 1924 in Ruhlmann's workshop. They depict various furniture and interior design ideas that were made for a variety of clients. The designs cover a range of projects such as hall, bedroom, library, restaurant, niche, office, studio, the luxury liner "Normandie", and others.
