100 ideas that changed design
This inspiring book chronicles the most influential ideas that have shaped industrial and product design. Written by two experts on modern design, it provides both a concise history of the subject, and offers a fascinating resource to dip into for the general reader. From the origins or modern design in the craft movements of the 19th and early 20th century and the changes brought about by mass production, the book traces the most important ideas in design through the modern movement and post-war consumer society to more recent ideas such as Open-Source Design and Biomimicry. Arranged in a broadly chronological order, the ideas are presented through fascinating text and arresting visuals, 100 Ideas that Changed Design explores when each idea first evolved and the subsequent impact it has had up to the present day.

Women in design : from Aino Aalto to Eva Zeisel
Women designers have made an immense contribution to our shared material culture and built environment. However, while several pioneers have achieved global recognition - Ray Eames, Florence Knoll Bassett and Charlotte Perriand to name a few - there are others not so well known but equally influential to the history of design. This book introduces the principal players in the areas of fashion, textiles, graphic and product design and architecture from the last 100 years, and uncovers a history with women firmly at the centre. Featuring profiles on more than 100 women designers, each accompanied by an informative and authoritative text and illustrated by iconic works, this book is an inspirational focus for all design students and practitioners.
