'Now You See Me! An Introduction to 100 Years of Black Design' is a new book by Charlene Prempeh covering fashion, architecture and design
‘White patriarchy has dominated design for decades,’ says Charlene Prempeh. The founder of creative agency A Vibe Called Tech believes that Black creatives often get overlooked.
Carefully divided into three parts, the book covers key figures and cultural moments in Black Fashion, Architecture and Graphic Design. ‘I thought these would be nice entry points for a wider audience as they each speak to a mass audience, and I wanted the book to be as accessible as possible’ says Prempeh.In the Fashion section, the book looks at the attire of first ladies touching on the incredible work of African American designer Anne Lowe.
