    The document outlines the history of design and technology over multiple periods: 1. The Industrial Revolution from 1750-1850 saw the development of steam power and mechanization through inventions like the spinning jenny, water frame, and steam engine, establishing the first production lines. 2. The Gilded Age from 1850-1914 brought mass production enabled by electricity, new types of designers working in fields like engineering, and early product designs for items like sewing machines, washing machines, and dishwashers. 3. The period from the 1880s-present saw further automation including the rise of industrial robots, as well as advances in telecommunication, automotive design, and other fields that have shaped modern design

    i1.0 | the steam engine

    James Watt did not invent the steam engine,


    but made the ‘exisiting’ design more functionally
    reliable and efficient.

    He was an instrument maker and in


    1765, conceived the idea of equipping
    the 1712 Newcomen steam engine with a
    separate condensation chamber, which he called
    a "condenser".

    Watt performed a lengthy series of trials on ways


    to seal the piston in the cylinder, which
    considerably reduced leakage during the power
    stroke, preventing power loss.
    i1.0 | production line
    Josiah Wedgwood’ pottery factory, 1769

    Wedgwood produced – green


    glaze, creamware, black basalt and jasperware –
    which were in high demand with the aristrocarcy.

    He set up the first production-line.

    He is credited as the inventor of


    modern marketing, specifically direct
    mail, money back guarantees, travelling
    salesmen, carrying pattern boxes for display, self-
    service, free delivery, buy one get one free, and
    illustrated catalogues

    Isambard Kingdom Brunel was an English civil
    engineer who is credited with Brunel built
    dockyards, the Great Western Railway (GWR), a
    series of steamships including the first
    propeller-driven transatlantic steamship, and
    numerous important bridges and tunnels.

    An American shoemaker named Lodner D. Phillips, patented a


    submarine propeller design in 1852 and the ’submarine
    exploring armour’ in 1856
    i2.0 | Product Design

    Isaac Merritt Singer came along, combined


    earlier designs and lodged a patent for his foot-
    powered sewing machine in 1851.

    While the wash board had been invented in 1797, 1851


    was the year the first drum (big bucket) washing
    machine was patented by James King, an American.

    Electric iron was invented in 1882 by Henry W. Seeley,

    The first mechanical dishwashing device - made of


    wood and was cranked by hand while water sprayed
    onto the dishes - was registered in 1850 in the United
    States by Joel Houghton.
