Abstract

Lorraine Wild is a designer and educator currently living and working in Los Angeles. She received her BFA from the Cranbrook Academy of Art, and a MFA from Yale University. She was part of the first generation of designers who began taking apart the clear grids and reduced forms of postwar Modernism and creating collages that seemed more responsive to the fractured nature of a communications-saturated society. Wild is known as a writer and historian on design culture and currently a contributing writer of designobserver.com. She has collaborated with architects, curators and publishers to create innovative pieces.

Some of her clients include the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, The Getty Center for the History of Art and Humanities, the Architectural Association, The MIT Press, Cambridge and The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and among many others.
