Much of the original and printed material which constitutes the history of graphic design is in danger of being lost. The efforts of libraries and museums to preserve this material can be enhanced by the use of interactive videodisc to record, and to facilitate access to and exploitation of, the contents of graphic design archives. At the Rochester Institute of Technology, a project which aims to create an ‘electronic museum’ alongside an extensive archive of graphic design has achieved the production of a prototype videodisc and of accompanying software. While the Rochester Archive is focussed on American graphic design of the 1930s to 1950s, an international network of graphic design collections, and of electronic databases, is envisaged.

Shared Context

In this article, the history of visual communication design provides an area of thematic convergence. The research represented here engages typographic communication, an area of investigation familiar to the journal's readership. Yet its significance extends beyond illuminating the historical context of singular designs or designers. Collectively, the authors in this issue join a broader and sustained interdisciplinary conversation between design history and visual communication design practice. Situating their research relative to this shared context expands its relevance beyond their discrete areas of focus. At its inception, the history of visual communication design relied on the intuition of practitioners and the connoisseurship of collectors; its narrative prioritized aesthetic styles and eminent designers. The first sustained calls to move beyond such a conceptualization emerged in 1983 at Coming of Age: The First Symposium on the History of Graphic Design.

The Design Archive at Brighton University, until 2004 known as the Design History Research Centre Archives, houses a number of collections which are of great value to UK and international design historians. These include the Design Council Archive and that of ICOGRADA (the International Council of Graphic Design Associations), as well as material relating to two well-known designers, James Gardner and F. H. K. Henrion. These archives, which actually relate to one another very well, were acquired somewhat serendipitously, but future additions will be chosen as the result of a more strategic planning process.
