If you had to read 1 article on design research which one would it be?

I prefer books or articles that act as research themselves over those which describe research methods. I like to connect the dots myself. To that end, here's one of the most amazing graphic design and communication art history books you'll find. It shows the progression of Art Nouveau and early twentieth century commercial art to The Bauhaus movement and the new formalism to the more current state of modern graphic design as it evolved towards the 1950s and 1960s. And the essays from Alan Fern are top notch.

I have an original edition hardcover and it's easily one of my most prized books.
