Chinese designers are committed to bringing a Chinese essence into the core of their work. Their commitment has not just infused new vigor into classic Chinese cultural forms. It has created a unique new language within contemporary design. Designed in China showcases the brands that have pioneered new Chinese design in an industrial context. The products range across furniture, household products, fashion, jewelry and increasingly many other product types. In the book every product is documented by brand name, production dates, materials used and the central design concepts. A key element of the book is the designers sharing their original ideas, their successful lines of development, and also their blind alleys.
