History of Modern Design
David Raizman, Laurence Pu King
Laurence King
Over the last century, design has become an integral part of everyday life. Design objects are now part of the complex dynamics of mass consumption and have widely-felt social, technological, and commercial effects. Most of these objects are purchased out of a sense of desire rather than from basic need. While tracing the history of design over the last hundred years, the book explores the relationship between industrial design and society in all of its aspects.
