Design Movement/History

castro

This may not be a direct relation to typography. I am doing a research on the design movement, from 1890s till present.

There are 7 major design styles/movements in history from 1890 to today. They are:
1. Victorian Era
2. Art Nouveau Style
3. Modern Movement
4. Fifties’ American Kitsch
5. Post-modern Rebellion
6. The Contemporary Look
7. The Digital Age

Now, I am concentrating on the digital age. Is there any articles about this movement’s influences, introductions, or maybe typography in the digital age?

You should have a look at this book called Typology: Type Design from the Victorian Era to the Digital Age.
