Murray Moss, the impresario behind the shop, and his partner, Franklin Getchell, were the leading arbiters of good taste and the new—launching the careers of now-established designers such as Studio Job and Maarten Baas while bringing back into fashion eighteenth-century porcelain and Tupperware. By mixing high and low MOSS shifted the design conversation from the galleries of MoMA to a storefront in SoHo. \u003ci\u003ePlease Do Not Touch\u003c\/i\u003e is their witty insider confessions of that exciting time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Natural storytellers, Moss and Getchell effortlessly weave entertaining and revealing tales that take the reader behind the scenes of MOSS’s famous opening night parties and spectacular projects and partnerships with never-before-seen photographs from their personal archives. A memoir by two legends of modern design, \u003ci\u003ePlease Do Not Touch\u003c\/i\u003e is sure to become a “bible” for cognoscenti and students alike—transporting lovers of modern design back to the time when high design first broke all barriers.\u003cb\u003eMurray Moss \u003c\/b\u003eis the legendary founder of MOSS.
