Design Culture


The Culture of Design by Dr. Guy Julier

It’s a great feeling to know your efforts in promoting design literacy over the years is being commended.
Design Culture‘ is a section featuring an eclectic body of work from designers coming from different disciplines
around the world. Recently, I recalled coming across the article about the site in Guy Julier‘s book ‘The Culture of Design‘.

Here are excerpts from both the second and first editions:


Now into it’s second edition, the book is aimed at students of design studies, design history, cultural studies
and sociology. ‘The Culture of Design’ offers a unique overview of design practice in contemporary culture and
society. He’s pretty much summed up what ‘design culture’ in it’s context: “Design Culture is the study of the
inter-relationships between design artefacts, in all their manifestations, the work of designers, design production
(including marketing, advertising and distribution) and their consumption.”
