Design, History and Time
«Design, History & Time offers a challenge to design historians. It asks them to consider how assumptions about time as a measure of social value are ‘baked in’ to our thinking about design. It also offers ways to work through these assumptions and fixed representations, by putting a critical analysis of time at the forefront of design history.»

«From the permanence of cathedrals whose very construction spanned centuries to the inherent obsolescence of digital communication devices, this fascinating collection forces reconsideration of society’s changing relationship with time over time.»
