Lange is a Loeb Fellow, and a recipient of the 2019 Steven Heller Prize for Cultural Commentary.[1][2]

Education

Lange graduated with a BA in Architecture and Literature from Yale University in 1994. She gained her MA from the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, in 2001, and her PhD from the same institution in 2005 with the thesis “Tower Typewriter and Trademark: Architects, Designers and the Corporate Utopia, 1956–1964.” Lange was a Loeb Fellow at the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University, 2013–2014.[3]

Books

Lange has published four books to date. The latest, The Design of Childhood: How the Material World Shapes Independent Kids, was published by Bloomsbury Books in 2018 to critical acclaim.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] The book charts the design of the toys, spaces and material culture that shape childhood, and the impact of these.[12] One consequence of the approach has been to reveal the work and careers of many women not traditionally recognised within design and architectural history.[13] The impact of the book has extended through essays published The New Yorker, The New York Times, Curbed, The Atlantic and other publications.[14][15][16][12]

Writing About Architecture: Mastering the Language of Buildings and Cities was published in 2012 by Chronicle Books.[17] The Dot-Com City: Silicon Valley Urbanism, was published as en e-book by Strelka Institute in 2012.[18]Design Research: the store that brought modern living to American homes documents the history of Design Research, a store founded by Ben Thompson using the idea of the lifestyle store.[19] Written with Jane Thompson, the book tells the story of Design Research through the voices of the people involved.[20][21]
