Description

Explore the history of retail through Designed to Sell, a detailed account of mid-twentieth-century department store design in America. Covering the years from the 1930s to the 1960s, this book examines how postwar philosophies shaped the way goods were presented to the public. It traces the shift toward new modes of merchandise display and the rise of the industrial designer as a key figure in retail environments. This work connects the evolution of store aesthetics to broader cultural changes in consumer behavior and lifestyle. By looking at how function and beauty merged in commercial spaces, readers gain a deeper understanding of how modern merchandising began. The text uses five key case studies and original archival research to provide a clear look at the development of retail design during this influential era.
