This book, dedicated to the history of design from the
mid-nineteenth century to the present, is committed to drawing
guidelines for the development of this discipline, offering a
synthetic vision of the subject and, at the same time, highlighting
elements for future investigations. If it's true that the history
of artefacts and objects has always accompanied that of man,
punctuated by turns occurring with the acquisition of technological
innovations, it is in the mid-nineteenth century that we can
retrace historically the professional figure of the designer, thus
marking the birth of modern and contemporary design. The subject is
branched and composite, embracing many disciplines: in addition to
the field of furniture - which often exemplifies the broadest lines
of design research in an excellent way - other sectors are
considered here, from technical objects to graphics, from fashion
to car design. Particular attention is reserved for the influence
of the art world, with all its array of thought references that has
constantly permeated the birth of design projects.
