From there the figure of the designer unfolds and branches off, embracing many disciplines: in addition to the field of furniturewhich often exemplifies the broadest lines of designother sectors are considered here, from technical objects to graphics, from fashion to car design. In particular, attention is focused on the influence of the art world, with its array of avantgarde ideas that has gone handinhand with original design.Along with the chronological story, Design History Handbook presents a diachronic approach in which, through indepth graphics, the story of a single type, material or concept detaches from its historical place to create relationships with similar phenomena of other periods. The volume reproduces 300 color images, many with lavish captions elaborating on each story and leaving room for the readers interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SILVANA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45902195196102,"sku":"DADAX8836641326","price":53.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/61fqLRTENPL.jpg?v=1780339052","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/design-history-handbook","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
