Summary
In this wide-ranging compilation, art director, writer, and lecturer Steven Heller shares his passion for graphic design with readers, whom he invites to consider that design can be discerned in all things natural and manmade. Developed as content for a class devoted to reading, this collection is not overtly about conventional design, but about a variety of topics viewed through the lens of design. Offered as a primer for undergraduate and graduate students, Design School Reader presents more than forty essays on subjects such as:
- The role of design in politics
- Visual culture and the social impact of design
- Key moments in the history of typography
- Technological innovations
- The power of branding and logos
- Ethical considerations and dilemmas
- Important figures in the design world
