The catalogue Nordic Table Design. A Silent Female Revolution (1900-1970) aims to present about 45 female designers, artists, and intellectuals from the period between 1900 and 1970, telling a new history of design, made up of multiple voices, against the backdrop of the struggle for equal rights.
It traces the work and working conditions of these women who, with a humanistic and distinctively feminine approach to design and a firsthand knowledge of domestic needs, achieved a "silent revolution" in the way the table was conceived and, more generally, in women's lives.
They redesigned plates, glasses, pots and pans and cutlery, making them more functional and economical without ever sacrificing beauty; they experimented with new materials, colours and shapes, following the principle of the Modern Movement in which "form follows function."
A large number of high-quality artistic pieces, some in production loaned by companies, some historical pieces from private collections and museums, describe the creative activity and working conditions of 70 years of women's tableware design.

Cinisello Balsamo: Silvana Editoriale, 2026 9788836665488 1466 N vol.: 1, N pag.: 242, W: 24.4, Illustr.: COL + B/N, N illustr.: 182 Questo libro racconta di una rivoluzione, discreta ma profonda, portata avanti da donne designer, decoratrici, ceramiste che, progettando oggetti belli, funzionali e accessibili, hanno dimostrato come un semplice gesto quotidiano possa trasformarsi in un atto di libertą e di cambiamento. Il loro approccio, umanista, attento alle persone ed empatico verso il fruitore, pone al centro la cura come dimensione progettuale e come valore sociale. Il loro lavoro, spesso rimasto ai margini della storiografia del design, offre una chiave di lettura per comprendere le trasformazioni sociali e culturali che hanno attraversato i Paesi nordici tra l'inizio del Novecento e gli anni settanta: il passaggio dalla tradizione alla modernitą, dall'artigianato all'industria, da una societą gerarchica a una pił inclusiva.
