By Charlotte Fiell and Clementine Fiell

A celebration of over a century of female creativity and ingenuity within all areas of design, including fashion, textiles, furniture, lighting, product, automotive, industrial, graphic and interactive as well as architecture.

Women in Design a major contribution to the field of design history. Some of the designers featured are well-known names, while others less so, but still crucial to the fascinating story of how women – often against the odds – have used their creativity and ingenuity to create innovative and often beautiful designs over the decades. 

This publication also traces how the success of early women designers went on to inspire other women to similarly pursue their own professional dreams, which helped change the goals and focus of design and ultimately the course of its history. 

The book includes more than 100 profiles of women designers, including Ray Eames, Irma Boom, Paula Scher, and Elaine Lustig Cohen, April Grieman, and many others.
