Italian graphic design offers a new perspective on the subject by exploring the emergence and articulation of graphic design practice, from the interwar period through to the appearance of an international graphic design discourse in the 1960s. The book asks how graphic designers learned their trade and investigates the ways in which they organised and made their practice visible while negotiating their collective identity with neighbouring practices such as typography, advertising and industrial design. Attention is drawn to everyday design practice, educational issues, mediating channels, networks, design exchange, organisational strategies and discourses on modernism. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources and placing an emphasis on visual analysis, this book provides a model for a contextualised graphic design history as an integral part of the history of design and visual culture.

Das Wesen des Gedichts ist Gesang, nicht Gemälde, aber wer so redet (Herder), spricht – vom Volkslied. »Es sind / noch Lieder zu singen jenseits / der Menschen« (Celan), doch auch jenseits ihrer Sperenzchen? Kommt im alten Lied das verhaltene, was sich versagt und bleibt im Gedicht, zu Tage, als Tagelied ans Licht? Und was sind das für Worte, die wie Blumen tun, tausendschön, so ohne Erde und Terrain, nur aus der Luft gegriffen? Oswald Egger legt quasi heimatlose Lieder und Gedichte vor, die von dort, woher die Kinder kommen, ins Diesseits kassibern: Zinkblumen (nihilum album) aus Erde und Rede, Zink, das sich im Glosen und Fokus des Gegenständlichen verliert und wie lichtflüchtige Wollflocken in Luft aufgeht: als »lana philosophica« den Alchemisten und Hermetikern bekannt, woraus »nihilum album«, das »Weißnicht«, »Nichts« und »nicht« entstanden. Das Buch versammelt 3650 aparte Nichtstandard-Lieder in Vierzeilern (Priamelnund Schnaderhüpferln): Sing-Sprüche zur Poesie der Lieder; eine Jahrgirlande mit grotesken Zügen und heiter tänzelnden Wortarabesken. Zu hören auch – in der unverwechselbaren Intonation des Autors – auf der beigelegten CD.

The senses in interior design examines how sight, touch, smell, hearing and taste have been mobilised within various forms of interiors. The chapters explore how the body navigates and negotiates the realities of designed interiors and challenge the traditional focus on star designers or ideal interiors that have left sensorial agency at the margins of design history. From the sensually gendered role of the fireplace in late sixteenth century Italy to the synaesthetic décors of Comte Robert de Montesquiou and the sensorial stimuli of Aesop stores, each chapter brings a new perspective on the central role that the senses have played in the conception, experiences and uses of interiors.
