How do we see the world around us? "The Penguin on Design" series includes the works of creative thinkers whose writings on art, design and the media have changed our vision forever. Bruno Munari was among the most inspirational designers of all time, described by Picasso as 'the new Leonardo'. Munari insisted that design be beautiful, functional and accessible, and this enlightening and highly entertaining book sets out his ideas about visual, graphic and industrial design and the role it plays in the objects we use everyday. Lamps, road signs, typography, posters, children's books, advertising, cars and chairs - these are just some of the subjects to which he turns his illuminating gaze.

The Useless Machines, 很多人认识我时会说：“你知道，就是那个造了无用机器的人 (You know, the man who made the useless machines)”，甚至到了今天，我偶尔还是会被要求提供一个这样的物件，这些是我大约在 1933 年设计并制作的。那是个“二十世纪意大利运动 (Dovecento i...
