Description

Design is one of the most powerful forces in our lives and has never been more thrilling. At a time when we face tumultuous changes on every front - from the environmental and refugee crises to accelerating advances in technology - Design as an Attitude explores how a new generation of designers are using digital tools to pursue their social, political, and ecological goals by operating independently. In so doing, they are liberating design from its commercial role in the industrial age, and redefining it as a discipline of resourcefulness, instinct, and ingenuity. Charting the most important and exciting developments in contemporary design, this book assesses design's impact on us now and in the future.
