Description

John Gloag (1896-1981) was a leading modernist commentator and anyone with an interest in early and mid-20th Century design will be familiar with his name.

He was well known as an author of almost 60 books on architecture, social history and industrial design.

Gloag was a member of an elite design culture that was highly visible throughout the 1930s and 40s.

Although an ardent reformist with links to a number of prestigious institutions, including RIBA, the RSA, the DIA and the CoID, Gloag’s contribution to design reform and to an understanding of a national design tradition, has attracted little scholarly interest.

This set addresses that by re-issuing 10 of his most well-received books, many of them amply and beautifully illustrated.
