NM 344 - History of Design

(4)
Traces the history of graphic design from its origins in bookmaking to contemporary new media. The focus begins with the Arts & Crafts movement of the late 19th Century and continues through the modern and “post-modern” design movements of the 20th Century. Students will develop ways to insightfully “read” visual communication in an appropriate historical context by practicing a range of design writing and research forms. See department chair.
