Restarting Britain: Design Education and Growth

Abstract
This inaugural report from the Design Commission explores the link between the UK's national design capacity, and economic growth in the 21st century. In so doing, it describes and analyses the design skillset, assesses our current strengths in the field of design education, and compares those to the practices of other nations. It sets out the current threats to the ongoing successful delivery of design education and what the Design Commission believe the UK must do now to continue to compete.
