Design Objects and the Museum brings together leading design historians, curators, educators and archivists to consider the place of contemporary design objects within museums. Contributors draw on a wide range of 20th century and contemporary examples from international museums to consider how design objects have been curated and displayed within and beyond the museum. The book continues contemporary global debates on the ways in which museums of design engage and educate their public. Chapters are grouped into three thematic sections addressing The Canon and Design in the Museum; Positioning Design within and Beyond the Museum; and Interpretation and the Challenge of Design, with chapters exploring museological practice and issues, the roles people play in creating meaning, and the challenges contemporary design presents to interpretation and learning within the museum.

As well as pinpointing the best new talent worldwide, this visually stunning survey provides a showcase of cutting-edge imagery for a student and professional audience.Thanks to affordable technology and up-for-it, media-savvy clients, a huge number of designers set themselves up in their own studios, straight from college.

These designers are also characterized by their love of their locale, along with nomadic tendencies and a 'small is beautiful' attitude.

Stickers

From a London- and Paris-based team of sneaker enthusiasts, who are graphic designers and moving image makers in their spare time, comes this tribute to the shoe that has become a global obsession. With contributions from athletes, teen idols, moguls, and sneaker designers and enthusiasts worldwide, it offers a freeze-frame of this social phenomenon, including serious consideration of issues such as criminality, counterfeiting, exploitation, value for money and fashion. In the process of contacting all known sneaker freaks, the authors went surfing the Net - only to discover a parallel between the Internet and sneakers in terms of global communication, technology and obsessive behaviour. The result is a book structured as an Internet sight, with nodes, networks and key words for the reader to browse through a global conversation.
