Design for Victory: World War II Poster on the American Home Front $24.95 Inciting Americans at home to do their part in producing for the war effort, the poster-inexpensive, accessible, and ever-present-was an ideal agent for making war aims the personal mission of every citizen. From 1941 to 1945, government agencies, businesses, and private organizations issued an array of poster images linking the military front with the home front, calling upon all Americans to boost production at work and at home. The U.S. Office of War Information created the “Poster Pledge,” urging volunteers to “avoid poster waste,” “treat posters as real war ammunition,” and “never let a poster lie idle.” This colorful collection of over 150 World War II-era posters focuses on the theme of wartime production on the home front. The range of designs and images will inspire graphic designers, while the descriptive captions and informative text will interest history and military buffs. Some of the famous slogans these posters introduced include “When you ride alone you ride with Hitler,” “She won’t talk-will you? The enemy has ears,” “This is America… Keep it Free,” and “Remember Pearl Harbor-purl harder!” |

Designing Camelot: The Kennedy White House Restoration $50 Nowhere was the "Kennedy style" more evident than in the rooms in which the young President and his wife Jacqueline lived and worked between 1961 and 1963, as America witnessed the transformation of its premier residence from "home of the President" to "house-museum." Designing Camelot is the first book to document the restoration of the White House by Jacqueline Kennedy and her advisors—the most significant and extensive restoration to date. Under the watchful eye of the Fine Arts Committee for the White House, chaired by famed antiquarian Henry Francis du Pont, and, unbeknownst to the American public, French interior designer Stéphane Boudin, the White House became a model for historic houses all over America. Many of the country’s governors’ mansions were renovated as state First Ladies strove to emulate the efforts of a sophisticated Jacqueline Kennedy. Through rich anecdotes and a stunning collection of four-color and black-and-white photographs, Designing Camelot illustrates the rich interiors of the White House, while at the same time exploring the restoration as an extension of the Kennedy/Camelot legacy. Individual chapters examine the White House room by room, inviting a look at not only familiar public places like the Oval Office and West Wing, but the Kennedys’ private quarters as well. Kennedy enthusiasts, interior designers, architects, preservationists, museum professionals, collectors, history buffs, and White House watchers alike will enjoy this intimate look at the taste and style of Jacqueline Kennedy, the most emulated First Lady of America, and the relationship between an extraordinary client and her designers. Far beyond the mere selection of furniture and fabrics, the renovation of the White House reflected the desire of the Kennedys—Jacqueline Kennedy in particular—to associate themselves with a grand historical past. Designing Camelot captures this incredible era as never before, and offers |

The Social Life of Information $25.95 Drawing from abundant learning experiences at Xerox PARC, and from examples within organizations ranging from IBM to Chiat/Day Advertising to California’s Virtual University, this book challenges many of the futurists’ predictions when it comes to the digital future. From Publishers Weekly From the chief scientist of Xerox Corporation and a research specialist in cultural studies at UC-Berkeley comes a treatise that casts a critical eye at all the hype surrounding the boom of the information age. The authors’ central complaint is that narrowly focusing on new ways to provide information will not create the cyber-revolution so many technology designers have visualized. The problem (or joy) is that information acquires meaning only through social context. Brown and Duguid add a humanist spin to this idea by arguing, for example, that trust is a deep social relation among people and cannot be reduced to logic, and that a satisfying conversation cannot be held in an Internet chat room because too much social context is stripped away and cannot be replaced by just adding more information, such as pictures and biographies of the participants. From this standpoint, Brown and Duguid contemplate the future of digital agents, the home office, the paperless society, the virtual firm and the online university. Though they offer many insightful opinions, they have not produced an easy read. As they point out, theirs is more a book of questions than answers and they often reject linear thinking. Like most futurists, they are fond of long neologisms, but they are given to particularly unpronounceable ones like infoprefixification (the tendency to put info in front of words). The result is an intellectual gem in which the authors have polished some facets and, annoyingly, left others uncut. |

Workplace by Design: Mapping the High-Performance Workscape $36 Space is an organization’s second most valuable resource, yet little attention is paid to how it supports the new ways of working or the high-performance business strategies driving corporations today. In Workplace by Design, Franklin Becker and Fritz Steele address the missing link for a successfully reengineered organization: the reengineered office. With graphic illustrations and examples from Levi Strauss, Chrysler Corporation, Steelcase, Chiat/Day and others, the authors show how to plan, design, and manage a total workplace in which space is a tool for achieving business goals, not a drain on profits. They demonstrate how managers, executives, human resource specialists, and design consultants can keep the physical work setting from undermining the success of workplace initiatives – such as teamwork, telecommuting, and cross-functional collaboration – that encourages high performance. Workplace by Design illustrates how companies have treated effective alternative workplace strategies and successfully put aside conventionally awkward notions of space – based on hierarchy and status – that separate teammates, pit departments against each other in turf wars, and tie up company cash. The book shows, for example, how Aetna Life and Casualty adapts to department reorganizations by utilizing one-size-fits-all workstations with furniture tailored to different functions; how IBM enhances productivity by equipping salespeople with home fax machines and laptop computers that keep them connected to their customers; how Apple Computer stimulates the creativity of its research and development team with informal and lively break areas. Workplace by Design shows how diverse companies haveimplemented total workplace strategy to effectively involve designers, consultants and internal staff in diagnosing and solving space problems. |
