Just in time for International Women's Day, DESIGN{H}ERS is a stunning showcase of new and emerging female talent spanning across a variety of design mediums to highlight the distinction and diversity that women bring to their respective fields.

Coupled with compelling stories revolving around the journeys of luminaries who have already made their mark, this book serves to intrigue and inspire the creatives of the future.

"Although there is still a long way to go until we reach true equality," adds Victionary, "the last few years have been encouraging for women around the world."

Featuring a foreword by Roanne Adams of RoAndCo Studio and interviews with luminaries Jessica Walsh from Sagmeister & Walsh, Verònica Fuerte of HEY, Yah-Leng Yu of Foreign Design Policy Group, and Hattie Stewart, DESIGN{H}ERS celebrates "the here and now as an inspiring visual time capsule that captures the distinctive aesthetics and aspirations of the best in their fields, as we work towards a future where success is no longer defined by gender".

DESIGN{H}ERS is available via Victionary, priced at £29.95. Buy it online at victionary.com.
