Summary:

"Lost and Found features 38 designers whose work provokes fundamental questions about the nature and role of design in Britain today." "This book includes internationally-renowned names such as Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood, Peter Saville, Tomato and Tom Dixon, as well as younger designers such as Hussein Chalayan, Shelley Fox, Fuel and Michael Marriott. All of them are taking a new approach to creativity, treating it as a means of articulating their own views as well as providing a service to clients. Lost and Found describes a culture of critical thinking and with it a picture of urban British design in the 1990s."--Jacket.
