By revealing the untold story of female design pioneers, this comprehensive introduction celebrates their crucial role in the history of modern processes of making. Arranged chronologically, this guide considers the structural barriers to professional success and how women overcame these hurdles, charting the success of designers including Anni Albers at the Bauhaus, the architect Eileen Grey, interior decorator Elsie de Wolfe and fashion icon Mary Quant, focusing on the key subjects of architecture, craft, fashion, furniture, graphics, interior, product and textile design. The link between early twentieth-century revolutionary design and lifestyle is explored, as well the ideas of shopping and consumerism as a liberating activity. The important contribution of designers during and after the Second World War is also discussed, along with design activism, design collectives and the current success of women working transnationally in architecture and design. 505 0 $a Shifting barriers -- Behind the scenes -- Pioneers of modern design -- Decorating women -- Partners in design -- Brand new women -- Design activism. 650 0 $a Women designers. 650 0 $a Women and design $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women and design $x History $y 21st century. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a World of art. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230907011556.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E21506CAE97711ED8437380758ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
