This book is a comprehensive journey through the shapes and colours, forms and functions of design history in the 20th century. An A-Z of designers and design schools, which builds into a complete picture of contemporary living. Lavishly illustrated, this is design in the fullest sense.

From furniture to graphics, it's all here - the work of artists who have shaped and recreated the modern world with a dizzying variety of materials.
From the organic to the geometric, from Art Deco, through to Pop and High-Tech, this book contains all the great names - Bernhard, Bertoia, De Stijl, Dieter Rams, Starck, Charles and Ray Eames, to name only a very few.

Designing the 21st Century
Author(s): Charlotte Fiell & Peter Fiell

How do today's brightest and best designers see the future of design? What are the defining elements of form, function, and aesthetics at the turn of the millennium?

A cross section of the world's most influential designers, from superstars to newcomers answer the question, "What is your vision for the future of design?"

The experimental concepts and predictions featured here will serve as an important reference for generations to come - when researchers in 2101 want to see what was going on in design a century earlier, this is the book they'll turn to.
