Reviews

Craft has deep roots and heritage but these material skills and ways of working are just as relevant today as they were centuries ago. Critical writing on craft, such as Design Roots, is crucial to ensure it continues to evolve and thrive. * Rosy Greenlees OBE, Executive Director of the Crafts Council, UK * A balanced, insightful, integrated agenda... a collaboration of thoughtful practitioners that offers fruitful research... The insightful editors and creative contributors managed to avoid most difficulties seen in edited volumes: the range of quality, the consistency of the essays, and the enlarged sum of the book impressed me... These pages do not offer sentimentality and nostalgia but promote the evolving, innovative, and adaptive nature of traditional, culturally significant designs, products and practices... [I] enjoyed the satisfaction of an admirable accomplishment... I would recommend this edited volume to thinking practitioners and researchers looking for inspiration - it is full of ideas worth pursuing. * K. Scott Swan writing for the Design Journal, Routledge *
