Some nice enough furniture based loosely on traditional American furniture which could be built by a skilled worker. Nothing special, some are very modern looking.

This book is a Thos Moser Company, group project. They knuckled down and produced proper drawings for all of their work. It's a big improvement on the first book by Moser (How to Build Shaker Furniture).

Excellent detailed drawings for well proportioned hardwood furniture that will work in many styles of home or apartment. Worth buying and keeping in your workshop.
