centered offers a rich, inclusive, and contemporary look at design diversity, both past and present, through essays, interviews, and images curated by design educator and advocate kaleena sales. as the design industry challenges its eurocentric foundations and reassesses conventional practices, centered highlights the voices, places, methods, ideas, and beliefs that have been overshadowed or excluded by dominant design movements. with thirteen thought-provoking essays and interviews, this volume features underrepresented and impactful design work, both historical and contemporary.

• includes works such as gee's bend quilters by stephen child and isabella d'agnenica and a chinese typographic archiveby yujune park and caspar lam.
• features an interview with sadie red wing (her shawl is yellow) on indigenous sovereignty and design.
• explores diverse and often overlooked design movements like the truck art of india by shantanu suman.

centered is an essential read for anyone passionate about diversity in design and the importance of elevating marginalized voices and practices in shaping the future of the field.
