General Knowledge

This volume gathers Stephen Bayley's collected writings on design. Since the late 1970s, Bayley has advised Sir Terence Conran, created the influential Boilerhouse Project at the Victoria and Albert Museum, directed London's Design Museum and advised the Labour government. His journalism, although best known for covering taste and design in the widest meaning of the words, has also delved into a much wider range of issues related to popular culture, car culture, art and society.
