Design Literacy

En savoir plus sur le livre

The book features a collection of essays that explore a wide range of aesthetic, political, historical, and personal issues in design, spanning from the late nineteenth century to today. It includes both revised pieces from the original work and thirty-two new essays, covering topics from the serious, like the swastika and antiwar posters, to the playful, such as MAD magazine parodies. Organized into eight thematic categories—persuasion, mass media, language, identity, information, iconography, style, and commerce—this work provides a comprehensive look at design literacy.
