«B — BAUhaus: The Alphabet of the Modern World is a collection of 39 essays by Dejan Sudžić, a specialist in the history of design and architecture, director of the Design Museum in London (2006-2020). It's rare to find such interesting, insightful and witty stories about the works and tastes of Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Jorn Utzon, industrial design by Dieter Rams and Ettore Sottsass, chair design by architect Charles Eames, as well as cars, logos, fashion, taste and postmodernism under one cover!

This is a guide to modern reality, formed like a mosaic of objects, phenomena, ideas, prominent figures, artistic trends, technical inventions, social and historical vicissitudes and their consequences.

Dejan Sudžić writes about the key elements of this mosaic, which largely determine the way we live, our ideas about beauty and value, our needs and desires. He seems to be setting up landmarks that can be used by both the designer in his creative search and the consumer - in the broadest sense - who seeks meaningfulness in his own choices and environment.
