“Driven by the lack of female role models in graphic design, notamuse is a project that critically investigates the visibility of women graphic designers in the design public. While there are many women working in the field, the public discourse as we encounter it on conferences and blogs, in design books and design history, is still dominated by men. With notamuse we try to find reasons for this phenomenon by interviewing women designers, design historians and sociologists. More than that we keep our eyes open for outstanding contemporary women graphic designers. As a result we created the book notamuse – A New Perspective on Women Graphic Designers in Europe.”
