Happiness by Design

Více o knize

Focusing on the intersection of design and media, this book explores the innovative work of Charles and Ray Eames, who viewed happiness as essential to liberal democracy. It presents midcentury modernism not as a static institution but as a dynamic movement driven by creative experimentation in film and multimedia. Justus Nieland examines how these designers, alongside contemporaries like Will Burtin and László Moholy-Nagy, influenced cultural administration and fostered partnerships across various sectors, shaping the modern lifestyle and anticipating our current networked society.
