Following the cultural upheavals of the Covid-19 era, curators of Carnegie Museum of Art's Decorative Arts and Design department invited leading academics, designers, educators and critics to consider what language is needed now to reconsider design objects. This ambitious book compiles their answers, comprising 50 essays authored by nearly as many contributors from multiple disciplines – pulling from each response a key term that is indexed and organised alphabetically. From Ableism to Emotion, Harm to Loved, Remixed to Symmetry, the publication puts forward multiple points of entry and inquiry that spark new meaning for design fans and general museum visitors alike. Lushly illustrated with 200 plates from the museum’s renowned design collection, 'A Lexicon for Design' offers a thrilling visual and linguistic survey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9780880390750.
