Designing for People

Bol

A cult read amongst designers for more than half a century, this text is the manifesto of America's greatest industrial designer and the pioneer of a design approach that put people first. Dreyfuss was the designer of the first answering machine, the Hoover vacuum cleaner, the Bell telephone, and much more. From the first answering machine ("the electronic brain") and the Hoover vacuum cleaner to the SS Independence and the Bell telephone, the creations of Henry S. Dreyfuss have shaped the cultural landscape of the 20th century. Written in a robust, fresh style, this book offers an inviting mix of professional advice, case studies, and design history along with historical black-and-white photos and the author's whimsical drawings. In addition, the author's uncompromising commitment to public service, ethics, and design responsibility makes this masterful guide a timely read for today's designers.
