Description: Swedish Design: A History provides a fascinating and comprehensive introduction to the development of design in Sweden from the mid - nineteenth century to the early twenty - first. Leading design historian Lasse Brunnstr m traces the move from artisanal crafts production to the mass production and consumption of designed objects a process by which the role and profile of the designer became increasingly important. His survey richly illustrated with images of the designed objects discussed takes in forms of design traditionally associated with Sweden such as household objects and textiles while also considering some less - written about genres such as industrial and graphic design. Brunnstr m questions many established ideas about design in Sweden notably its aesthetics and its relationship to Sweden's national and political culture. He argues that the history of design in Sweden has been far more complex and less straightforwardly 'blond than hitherto understood.
