The Hon. David Wynford Carnegie (23 March 1871 - 27 November 1900) was an explorer and gold prospector in Western Australia.

Early life: David Carnegie was born in London on 23 March 1871, the youngest child of James Carnegie, 9th Earl of Southesk.

The ABCs of the Bauhaus : The Bauhaus and Design Theory (9780500277140)

The Bauhaus is the most widely known, discussed, imitated, dissected, exhibited phenomenon in modern design. Yet since the Second World War design education has lost sight of one of its most important legacies: the need to think about design in a theoretically self-conscious way. By re-examining Bauhaus ideas and encouraging critical thinking about the means and ends of design, this work provides the opportunity to reinvigorate today's graphics. Conceived, designed and edited at The Herb Lubalin Study Center of Design and Typography, The Cooper Union, New York, this book traces the origins and impact of the Bauhaus in relation to basic design, graphic design and typography. While the text is a challenging exploration of the Bauhaus's aims and achievements, the book itself is a manifesto of Bauhaus ideals, synthesizing editorial concept, typography and craftsmanship. Essays by eminent contributors address various aspects of the Bauhaus, including its relationship to Weimar cul...
