Book Synopsis Twentieth-century Style & Design by : Stephen Bayley
Download or read book Twentieth-century Style & Design written by Stephen Bayley and published by Van Nostrand Reinhold Company. This book was released on 1986 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The twentieth century is the first century of self-conscious, total design at every level of our living and environment. Care and vision in the application of design have come to be demanded in every aspect of modern life - from our kitchens and bathrooms, to our factories and workshops, from our clothes and domestic objects, to the packaging of pocket calculators or the structuring of plastic dining chairs. Twentieth-Century Style and Design is a major survey, lavishly illustrated throughout. It traces the concerns of designers of this century in four chronological sections: the pioneers from 1900 to 1915; ornament versus pure form of the twenties and thirties; austerity and reconstruction in the forties and fifties; and experiment versus continuity in the sixties to the present. Although each section is divided according to the type of design - decorative arts, industrial and domestic design, and architecture and the urban environment - the emphasis is on the all-embracing nature of design in the twentieth century. The authors are all leading authorities actively involved in the promotion of contemporary arts. Combining their knowledge and experience, they have produced a book which is essential reading for those involved with architecture and design and for anyone interested in this increasingly pervasive aspect of today." -- Book Jacket.
