  • international design - from Europe to Africa
  • design history - from Art Nouveau to punk
  • sustainable design, recycling and green design
  • design theory - from semiotics to gender, to postcolonialism
  • design technology, graphic design and the web.

Fully cross-referenced, with up-to-date guides for further reading, Design: The Key Concepts is an indispensable reference for students of design, design history, fashion, art and visual culture.
