Summary

Did you know that everything you touch has been designed? Your toys, your clothes, your scooter . . . and this book!

A design can be as small as a toothbrush . . . or as BIG as a skyscraper. Every design starts in someone's imagination - an imagination just like yours.

Travel through one day and discover how the world around you has been designed - even though we don't always realise it! Question HOW everyday items have been designed, and WHY they look the way they do. Guaranteed to make you see the world a little differently, pick up your pens and imagine your own designs.

What will you design?

With facts and questions to inspire all budding designers and get creative minds whirring - and featuring iconic designs from the experts at the V&A Museum.
