40 years have passed since the Design History Society was formed in 1977. Additionally, the Journal of Design History, created by the Society in 1987 - and now a leading journal in the field - celebrates its third decade of publication this year. To commemorate both milestones, the Society decided a poster should be created for the upcoming DHS 2017 Annual Conference.
