Paul T. Frankl (American, b. Austria, 1886–1958) Skyscraper Bookcase desk, c. 1928. California redwood, black lacquer.
Frankl arrived in New York from Berlin in 1914. He brought with him an outsider's fresh perspective and an enthusiasm for forging a uniquely American design aesthetic. He began as an architect and later switched to designing and painting fine art and furniture. In the years between the two world wars he, more than any other designer, helped shape the distinctive look of American modernism.
In the 1920s, he introduced his celebrated skyscraper style before turning to metal furnishings in the 1930s. Frankl opened Frankl Galleries on 48th Street, calling his company Skyscraper Furniture, which became an epicenter of American modernism, including modern textiles and wallpapers imported from Europe.
