We detail industrial-product design, packaging design, poster design, and other related subjects. The characteristics of each era are discussed in the following five sections: daily life, national image, transmission and reception, export trade, and communication and transportation. We approach each design from numerous perspectives, exploring its development as well as how it altered tastes and trends. These products were not just a symptom of change; they also answered social needs and spurred development, keeping China apace with production methods in Europe and giving ordinary citizens access to mass-produced luxuries like TVs, radios and cosmetics. The work of Shanghai designers was fundamental in turning China into the thriving economy we see today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acc Art Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67866236125426,"sku":"9781788840132","price":69.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/0883\/2974\/files\/9781788840132_a.png?v=1793340953","url":"https:\/\/www.bookxcess.com\/products\/bxos66-made-in-shanghai-9781788840132","provider":"BookXcess","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
