100 Ideas that Changed Graphic Design

100 Ideas that Changed Graphic Design Review






100 Ideas that Changed Graphic Design Overview


New in the "100 Ideas that Changed..." series, this book demonstrates how ideas influenced and defined graphic design, and how those ideas have manifested themselves in objects of design. The 100 entries, arranged broadly in chronological order, range from technical (overprinting, rub-on designs, split fountain); to stylistic (swashes on caps, loud typography, and white space); to objects (dust jackets, design handbooks); and, methods (paper cut-outs, pixelation). Written by one of the world's leading authorities on graphic design and lavishly illustrated, the book is both a great source of inspiration and a provocative record of some of the best examples of graphic design from the last hundred years.

Materials & Techniques in the Decorative Arts: An Illustrated Dictionary

Materials & Techniques in the Decorative Arts: An Illustrated Dictionary Review






Materials & Techniques in the Decorative Arts: An Illustrated Dictionary Overview


In our industrialized society, it is often difficult to imagine how the objects around us are made. How, for example, are triple spirals put into the stem of a wine glass or table tops inlaid with whole landscapes of semi-precious stones? This unique dictionary is devoted to the fascinating materials and techniques used in the decorative arts. Materials range from the exotic to the most basic, from rare stones found only in the mountains of Badakshan, unsavory animal products, and the ground bodies of South American insects to ones as common as sand, clay, and lime.

Compiled by a team of experts, each with an intimate knowledge of his or her subject, the entries are written in clear, accessible language and supplemented by numerous photographs and drawings. Each core material (glass, ceramics, textiles, paper, plastics, leather, metal, stone, wood, and paint) is covered from its raw state through any processing or preparation to various craft stages and finally, to any surface finishing.

Traditionally, the kind of information found in these pages has been passed on from craftsman to craftsman or confined to highly specialized books, and even common terms are often misunderstood. This dictionary makes the subject accessible to all—from art and architectural historians, curators, collectors, restoration specialists, artists, and museum staff to decorators, aficionados, and those who enjoy watching Antiques Roadshow. In short, this book is for all those who are intrigued by the materials and techniques used to create the beautiful objects that surround us.

History of Interior Design

History of Interior Design Review






History of Interior Design Overview


History of Interior Design provides a comprehensive survey of architecture, interiors, furniture, and accessories from ancient civilizations through the twentieth century. While primarily focusing on Western civilizations, the book expands on traditional studies and includes design histories of African, Eastern, and Indigenous cultures. Drawing on her experience as an instructor, Ireland covers not only social and technological influences but also specific characteristics of each of the periods and styles. The world has become a global community and though much is the same, much is different. Interpreting history can lead to a better understanding of the past, furnish a greater appreciation for the present, and inform the very future of design. This text provides the tools for designers to understand the differences across history and across the contemporary world and how to interpret history to complete their design projects successfully.
