The genius...

This time I will share with you a very interesting series of the BBC.
It's called "The Genius of Design" and tries to show us how the design changed us socially, economically and culturally from the everyday to the massive.

This first chapter introduces us to the world of design contrasting the beginning, where designer and manufacturer were the same person and the means of production were handmade, with today specializes in mass production and automated.

This series is very promising, because it has good archival material and "the opinion of major reference design," therefore the XX century as the century, as Dieter Rams or J Mays (Ford Global design chiefs)

Here, some of the objects that series use to illustrate us.


Soon am going to comment Chapter 2. See you.
