Since 2009, the Iaspis project ''Design Act'' has been highlighting and discussing practices in which designers have been engaging critically as well as practically in such issues. Itself an example of applied critical thinking and experimental tactics, the process behind the ''Design Act'' project is considered as a curatorial, participatory and open-ended activity. ''Design Act'' has developed through an online archive, public events, and an international network. ------------------- Co-published with Iaspis ----------------- Design by Johanna Lewengard

Paperback. Etat : New. How do contemporary design practices engage with political and societal issues? Can design realize ideas that lead to significant change? Where would the change happen: in the design studio, on the factory floor, in exhibition settings or on the street? Some of the design world's greatest practitioners, including architects, came together for a multi-faceted, three-year project sponsored by Iaspis. This book, the project's culmination, comprises texts, interviews, drawings and other artwork in three sections: WHAT brings together contemporary and historical writings; HOW analyzes common issues and emerging tactics within socially and politically engaged design; and WHERE offers a broad perspective on new forms of design practice. Featuring facsimiles of 36 projects from the Design Act archive, this rich book is a must-have for designers who care about their role in the wider world. N° de réf. du vendeur 106252
