Title | Rex Silver, designer-manager: the Silver Studio and questions of authorship |
Authors | Hendon, Z. |
Abstract | What does it mean to be the ‘author’ of a design? Commonsense tells us that if something is made by human hand then there must be someone, ideally a named individual, to whom the item can be attributed. But commercial realities and design processes sometimes mean than ‘authorship’ is a problematic concept, with the finished product being the result of a complex interaction between client and designer, not to mention the numerous further interventions in the manufacturing process. |
