Design since 1945 by Kathryn B. Heisinger
80,00
€
Edited by Kathryn B. Hiesinger, curator of European Decorative Arts after 1700 at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, this volume presents a comprehensive survey of postwar design and its evolution through everyday consumer objects.
Working closely with leading designers and scholars, Hiesinger assembled over 400 works that trace four decades of innovation — from the reconstruction period after World War II to the emergence of global design culture.
The book includes essays by Timo Sarpaneva, Ettore Sottsass, Dieter Rams, and other key figures whose ideas shaped modern material life. More than a catalogue, Design Since 1945 stands as both a visual and intellectual record of how design transformed daily experience in the second half of the twentieth century.
Each book from our Library comes with a handmade cover made from Japanese Satogami paper, produced from virgin wood pulp. The title is hand-printed and finished with a brown rope bookmark.
USA, 1983, Hardcover edition.
Condition: Used, with signs of handling.
