Based on the industrial manufacturing history of Shanghai over the
past 100 years, this book introduces the development of Chinese
design throughout the different eras of the People's Republic of
China, from the planned economy stage to the later economic reforms
and the opening up of the country to trade. We detail
industrial-product design, packaging design, poster design, and
other related subjects. The characteristics of each era are
discussed in the following five sections: daily life, national
image, transmission and reception, export trade, and communication
and transportation. We approach each design from numerous
perspectives, exploring its development as well as how it altered
tastes and trends. These products were not just a symptom of
change; they also answered social needs and spurred development,
keeping China apace with production methods in Europe and giving
ordinary citizens access to mass-produced luxuries like TVs, radios
and cosmetics. The work of Shanghai designers was fundamental in
turning China into the thriving economy we see today.
