In 2008, the American designer George Nelson (1908-1986) would have been 100 years old. In recognition of this centennial anniversary, the Vitra Design Museum is planning the first comprehensive retrospective on his work. Trained as an architect with a degree from Yale, Nelson was one of the defining figures of American design in the latter half of the 20th century.
