"Unimark International was innovative in expanding boundaries of design, business, and technology in the 1960s and early '70s, sometimes leaping ahead of the norm by many decades. Unimark International deserves recognition for its influence in a specific era of design history, and for the many ideas and achievements-in the United States, Europe, Africa, and South America-that have continuing validity beyond that era and beyond the profession of design.
This book acknowledges the people, energy, and ideas of Unimark International. It clarifies working relationships and illuminates the intellectual and creative achievements of people within the firm. It examines Unimark's focus-some might call it obsession-with design modernism, and discusses the communication and structure that designers imprint upon the environment for everyday use by ordinary people."
