Calling all type nerds! Get ready for a chatty and opinionated, deeply nerdy history of how 16 of the most famous typefaces were made and why they look the way they do. Who were their "parents" and "family"? Where do they come from and how were they born? And what was happening in the world at the time that influenced their growth and use? What's pretty and interesting about them, and what isn't? How are the typefaces used (and abused), and where can we find them "in the wild"? Finally, and most importantly, Back to Font will help you decide whether to kiss, kill, or marry that typeface. An entertaining yet authoritative text by two Australian academics will be enhanced by color illustrations showing typefaces in use. Based on the authors' podcast The Type Pod. Warning: this book may cause you to rethink your default font settings. Contents: Times New Roman / Gill Sans / Futura / Bodoni / Goudy / Baskerville / Akzidenz Grotesk / Mrs Eaves / Trajan / Novarese / Bell Centennial / Foundry Sterling / Transport / Zapf Dingbats / Univers / Papyrus

The Art of the Scribe

The 1970s is often considered the period that design forgot. In Private sets out to challenge this view, offering a cultural history of domestic interior design in Britain and America over the course of a decade that shaped the contemporary relationship between fashion and interiors. 

With each chapter dedicated to a different room in the house, this collection explores style, design and socio-cultural influence from the sitting room to the sauna, and from the kitchen to the conservatory. Considering the key critical discourses which arise from the style and function of each space, In Private looks at how the public sphere informed the decorating styles, furniture and furnishing of the private home, from shag pile carpets to Swedish duvets.

Demonstrating how the cultural environment of the 1970s sparked the ideas, styles and practices that have become common currency in today's interior design, the book examines questions of sensuality, tactility, fashion, fantasy and gender. Beautifully illustrated and packed with original research, it provides an insight into 1970s innovation and eclecticism in fashion, textiles and the domestic interior.

Fashion in the French Revolution looks at the elaborate dress of French society and the court in the 1780s and the way in which plain clothing became identified with "democracy". Illustrated in full color throughout and with many new additional images, this extensively revised edition of Fashion in the French Revolution looks at the elaborate dress worn by the elite in the 1780s, and then the impact on people's lives and clothing as a result of the events of 1789 onwards. This was a period in which, for the first time, what one wore was radically affected by revolutionary politics and plain clothing became identified with 'democracy'. Award-winning dress historian Aileen Ribeiro skilfully weaves analysis of paintings, engravings, fashion plates and extant garments to reveal how clothing at all levels in society changed as a result. This new edition, as relevant, informative and provocative as when it was first published in 1988, brings the classic Fashion in the French Revolution to a new generation of readers interested in dress history, fine art, European 18th century history, and all those interested in intelligent, articulate and informed discussion of the period.

Fashion in the French Revolution

On any given day, millions of people will read e-books. Yet many of us will do so while holding them apart from 'real books'. The fact that a book can be worthy - of our time, money, respect, even love - without being 'real' is a fascinating paradox of twenty-first century reading. Drawing on original data from a longitudinal study, Laura Dietz investigates how movement between conceptions of e-books as ersatz, digital proxy, and incomplete books serves readers in unexpected ways. The cultural value of e-books remains an area of intense debate in publishing studies. Exploring the legitimacy of e-books in terms of their 'realness' and 'bookness', Dietz enriches our understanding of what e-books are, while also opening up new ways of thinking about how we imagine, how we use, and what we want from books of every kind. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

"Shoes are everyday objects but they are loaded with meaning. This study reveals how shoes played a powerful role in the wider story of shifts in gender relations in eighteenth-century Britain. It focuses on the relationship of shoes with the body and its movements, and therefore how what we wear on our feet relates closely to social, occupational and gender roles.

Shoes are everyday objects but they are loaded with meaning. This book reveals how shoes played a powerful role in the wider story of shifts in gender relations in 18th-century Britain. It focuses on the relationship of shoes with the body and its movements, and therefore how what we wear on our feet relates closely to social, occupational and gender roles. It also uses footwear to explore topics such as politics, war, dance and disability. Thinking about shoes as material objects, McCormack studied historic shoes first-hand in museums, in order to ascertain their physical properties and what they would have been like to wear. Worn shoes preserve traces of the wearer’s body in their indentations, stretches and scuffs, providing a unique primary source about their wearer. This approach forges new connections between the histories or material culture, gender and the body, and sheds new light on what it meant to be a man in the 18th century.

50 Design Ideas You Really Need to Know

A straightforward guide to the most significant design concepts throughout history, in 50 accessible, bite-sized essays.

Master the design ideas that shape the world we live in today. In a series of 50 accessible essays, John Jervis introduces and explains the centralmovements, inventions and creative geniuses of design, tracing its evolution from the 19th century to the present day. From arts and crafts and typography to key movements such as art deco and Bauhaus, 50 Design Ideas You Really Need to Know is complete introduction to the most important design concepts in history.

"Applies feminist theory to design in a meaningful/accessible way; establishes new ways to design for complex social, political &amp; environmental problems; defines guiding principles &amp; values; proposes practical methods for practicing feminist design; demonstrates positive impact of feminist design through case studies and interviews"--

A bold and timely collection that brings feminist theory and critical thinking to life through vital, approachable design methods and practices. Feminist Designer brings together a constellation of voices and perspectives to examine the intersection of design and feminist theory. For decades, the feminist refrain within design has hinged on the representation and inclusion of women in the field. This collection, edited by Alison Place, however, is a call to move beyond this narrow application. Feminist design is not just about who does design—it is about how we do design and why. Feminist frameworks for design activism are now more relevant than ever, as they emphasize collaborative processes that aim to disrupt and dismantle power hierarchies while centering feminist ways of knowing and doing. The first book in nearly three decades to address such practices in design, Feminist Designer contains essays, case studies, and dialogues by 43 contributors from 16 different countries. It engages a wide variety of design disciplines, from graphic design to disability design to algorithmic design, and explores key feminist themes, such as power, knowledge, care, plurality, liberation, and community. Through diverse, sometimes conflicting, intersectional perspectives, this book contributes new design methods informed by a multiplicity of feminisms that confront design’s patriarchal origins while ushering in new pathways for making critical and meaningful change.

Critical Craft Studies

Following the career of the Irish lace designer and inspector Emily Anderson (1856-1948), and exploring the contemporary relevance of her work, this book charts a path through the many institutions, organizations, philanthropic initiatives and government bodies that supported, promoted and monitored the crafting and design of lace in Ireland from the late 19th century onwards. The story of lace's introduction in Ireland to provide work and sustenance during the Irish Famine is a well-known element of social history, yet the development of the craft - as a set of techniques and designs, with a supporting infrastructure of inspection and education - has never been the subject of a comprehensive study. Where did designs for Irish lace come from? Who decided how and to whom it would be taught? How were the aesthetics and institutions of lace design and lacemaking shaped by contemporary concerns about gender, politics and class? This interdisciplinary book gathers little-studied textual and material sources to explore these questions, informed by recent critical work in craft and design studies as well as by pattern books and local, embodied knowledge from practitioner communities. This narrative highlights the craft's development and cultural meaning as well as its interconnectedness with deeply politicized, gendered and class-based discourses surrounding design, education, taste and industry. Weaving together a network of exchanges between Irish institutions such as the Cork School of Art, Irish Agricultural Organisation Society, and Department of Agriculture and Technical Instruction, and by following Anderson's career, author Molly-Claire Gillet traces early feminism in craft and how lace facilitated a path to female professionalization in Irish industry. The book concludes with a consideration of contemporary Irish lacemaking - now proudly claimed as a part of Ireland's intangible cultural heritage - and charts a shift through the 20th century in the conception of lace design as 'art for industry', and lacemaking as an economic necessity to both practices as expressions of identity, creativity and networked community-building.
