by Charlotte Fiell, Peter Fiell
Design of the 20th Century - Thryft
Design of the 20th Century - Thryft

Visual journey through 20th-century design evolution.

If you're someone with a keen interest in the aesthetic and functional shifts that have defined our living spaces and objects, "Design of the 20th Century" is like a time machine for design lovers. It offers a comprehensive look at the brilliant minds and societal trends that have shaped our visual and practical landscape. Perfect for design students or enthusiasts wanting to understand the historical context of their passion.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
