Since the 1950s, the presence of women designers in Southwest Asia and North Africa in discourses on design and visual culture has remained largely under the radar. This book focuses on the work and stories of these women (graphic designers, illustrators, calligraphers, and typographers), assembling the various findings in order to establish a foundation of women role models, while also informing the design and research community at large about the wealth and social significance of their contributions. Through critical writing, testimonials, artworks, and more, it invites further exploration and discussions on the position of graphic women in the visual culture of these regions.
