Modernism In Design by Paul Greenhalgh
Includes essays on design that cover Modernism's fortunes in Germany, Italy, Sweden, Britain, Spain, Belgium and the USA.
The object of this book is to diffuse mythsIf modernism has, in the past, been both absurdly praised and absurdly damned, Modernism in Design seeks to lift it out of this cycle, and to demonstrate that the modern movement could offer neither Jerusalem nor Babylon ... In this, the book succeeds admirably. Designer's Journal While this collection of essays is aimed primarily at design historians and students of design history, hard-pressed practising designers and architects should make room for it on their bookshelves.
