From soft drinks to couture fashion, the power of the brand to influence tastes and preferences is undeniable. This innovative book, published to coincide with a major exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, takes a challenging but entertaining look at international consumer culture at the beginning of the twenty-first century; Ranging across fashion, design, and media, brand.new sets out provocative debates about brands, design, and consumer habits. How are brand identities constructed? How do designed goods reflect or reinforce the brand message? How do different cultures and communities respond to so-called global brands such as McDonald's and Coca-Cola?; Critics, historians, sociologists, and designers, as well as voices from the business world, offer a wide spectrum of opinion on subjects from shopping in China to the branding of personality. In thought-provoking essays, they map out the economics and business of branding; look at personal and social identities in a global, commodified world; investigate the shopping experience from mall to web site; and raise ethical and social questions for both brand and consumer; With more than 200 color illustrations, including eighteen feature spreads on a variety of logos and advertising images, the book provides a wide-ranging look at retail, branding, and consumer behavior from around the world. Essential for all students and observers of modern culture, this invaluable survey will particularly appeal to those interested in advertising, product design, and fashion ER -
