Design Dictionary, Perspectives on Design Terminology

Design Dictionary: Perspectives on Design Terminology, edited by Michael Erlhoff and Tim Marshall, was published by Birkhäuser Verlag in Basel. It provides a foundation for international discourse on design, intended as a handbook for anyone who works with, studies, or is simply interested in design. The volume brings together original articles from 110 authors across countries including Japan, Austria, England, Germany, Australia, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the United States, whose differing cultural perspectives inform a shared understanding of core design categories. It covers and defines around 270 terms, combining established classics of design discourse with newer terms still under discussion, and is written to be both scholarly and suited to casual browsing.
