DESCRIPTION:
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. . Eclecticism, irony, multiple meanings and postmodernist allusions characterize the output of this new generation of designers. From Publishers Weekly After dreary decades of a single, government-imposed style, pluralism has blossomed in the design world of the former Soviet Union.

Posters, packaging, graphics, built environments for restaurants and stores, utopian architectural drawings, indu
Shows and describes designs for posters, magazines, buildings, products, and furniture, and offers brief profiles of young designers.
