Description

Asian influence is evident in all facets of British life, including food, fashion, music, and design. In celebration of the unique charm and graphic invention of Asian design, Reed Darmon, author of the popular "Made in China" and "Made in Japan", and co-author Kalim Winata have created a beautiful, and inspiring collection of vintage Indian design. The hundreds of images packed into this delightfully compact book include folk art and religious iconography, book and matchbox covers, Raj-era postcards, household product packaging and ads, Bollywood posters, toys and games, and other colourful and irresistible ephemera. A stylish object and graphic essay in one, "Made in India" is an extraordinary glimpse into the heart of Indian pop culture.
