R. Hunter Middleton Chicago Design Archive
Named after Chicago type designer Robert Hunter Middleton, the R. Hunter Middleton Chicago Design Archive is devoted to Chicago design and designers. It was organized to support the University's design academic programs in recognition of the importance of design history as a field of scholarly study.
Holdings consist of individual collections with special emphasis on graphic, industrial, and communications design from the period of Chicago's New Bauhaus through the present. They comprise a variety of formats - manuscripts, books, periodicals, photographs, audio and videotapes, artifacts and an extensive collection of printed graphic materials.
