The Culture of Design (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9785950085413)

Design Culture is an account of what lies behind the design of anything, from a chair to a website. It examines the many aspects of culture that shaped design in the past, still shape it today and will go on shaping it in the future. The book is intended for designers and their clients, and indeed for anyone who uses design and buys objects and services.

This is a special book about design. Instead of talking breathlessly about designers, going into raptures over individual styles or artefacts, or focusing on particular fields of design (that are only interesting to people who work in them), the book talks about design overall, how it comes about and what important preconditions it needs.

Design Culture contains many illustrations, and its witty and sardonic style helps to make the many and varied causes that underlie design easier to understand.

SANS WATER. This is a compact book. You can read it in one evening yet it will take much more time to digest.

FACTS, FACTS, FACTS. Every trend covered is illustrated with at least one case and usually more.

EASY COMPLEXITY. The field of design is ginormous, yet the trends are simple enough (if you know them).

PLEASANT TO READ. The book itself is carefully crafted for Kindle. Read everywhere, on any device you own.

All of us are a connected with design. Even if we not designers themselves, we do buy and consume products of design. To do that well takes a culture and this book is precisely about that culture, the Culture of Design.
