CHINA DESING NOW

From the entrepreneurial spirit of individual designers to the global ambitions of a nation, "China Design Now" explores how China''s new design culture began, how it is developing, and where it is going. Within the framework of three cities-- Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Beijing--a broad range of topics is covered, including new media, fashion, architecture, and urban planning. This book is being published for a headline exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, which coincides with the Beijing 2008 Olympics.
