Previously marginalized, overlooked, or even erased from history, Black designers are finally given their due in this first book to celebrate a century of groundbreaking work by Black graphic artists, architects and fashion designers whose work has helped define key cultural moments and movements.Youve seen their workbut have you seen them? Black designers have been working in every major industry but, for the past decades, have not been given the spotlight anywhere near to the extent of their white counterparts. This vibrant and wideranging book, full of photographs and illustrations, aims to correct that oversight, bringing a century of Black designers and their work into focus.Organized into three sections focusing on Fashion, Architecture and Graphic Design, Prempeh uses the pioneering work of key figures from the 20th and 21st century to explore important aspects of how Black design has been perceived within culture and society.From the necessity of the sidehustle, to interrogating the value placed on Black design, from reclaiming traditions, to exploring how design can be a form of protest, this book brings to the fore the stories of figures such as Ann Lowe, Dapper Dan, Norma Sklarek, Francis Kere, Emory Douglas and Liz Montague to unpick the complexities of being a Black designer.
