Elements of Furniture Design is a resource of information gathered from 30 years of working as a professional furniture designer. These elements of design are essential, and there is no other resource where they are available in one place. The reader will gain a comprehensive knowledge of how furniture is designed, and can use this information to create new and exciting design concepts. This knowledge is provided in four sections:

- A brief history and quick designer references (woods, veneers, wood joinery, comfort, architectural references, and drawing tools)
- Illustrating furniture construction
- Historic ornament used on furniture (molding, turning, carving)
- The typical design process with a new client

The work of cabinetmaker Thomas Day (a free man of color in the South in the mid-1800s) is used to tie the story together, and the reader will learn trade secrets of furniture design that have been lost to outsourcing and offshore manufacture.

Coley, Scott: - Scott Coley is an award-winning furniture designer, a current board-of-directors member, and past president of the International Society of Furniture Designers. He has designed furniture for many of America's largest furniture companies, historical associations, and celebrities. He lives in North Carolina.
