Summary: "The design profession emerged in response to the needs of the prosperous middle-class consumer and to suit new production methods that developed in the wake of the Industrial Revolution. Designers sought to re-think the language of form in terms of mass production. The momentum of avant-garde experiment and invention was maintained by a succession of remarkable men- artists, architects, engineers, critic, educationalists and philanthropist - whose legacy is the design industry in the twentieth century. " - From the Jacket
