Art & Industry: The Principles of Industrial Design

Author: Herbert Read
Category: Art Theory
Publisher: Faber & Faber Limited and Shenval Press Limited
Year: 1956
Subject: Design, Architecture, Furniture, Textiles, History, Industry
Description: The problem of design in an industrial age may be approached from two points of view - that of the practicing designer and that of the responsible citizen. I may assume that we all know what is meant by a practicing designer; by a responsible citizen I mean anyone who is concerned with those civilised values which find expression in the visual appearance not only of industrial products, but of all we make and use- our architecture, out cities, our street furniture, even our clothes.
