Summary
The Genius Of Design takes viewers on a fascinating journey through the material world to explore the ways in which designers over the past 250 years have grappled with the machinery of industrialisation and capitalism in order to deliver the kind of products that we, as individuals and as a society, need. The journey takes us from the first factories created by pioneers of the Industrial Revolution to the studios and production lines of some of todays most powerful and influential corporations including Apple, IKEA, Ford and Volkswagen. This series is about more than the usual list of icons, classics and gurus; it's about the real world
