| Abstract | "Flourish by Design brings together a range of established and emerging voices for a collection that provides original provocations on topics of global significance. Featuring contributors from a diverse array of backgrounds and professions, this compendium explores the difference that design, and design research can make for people, organisations, and planet to proposer now and in the future. It combines the work of experts from around the world alongside innovative provocations from the next generation of cutting-edge design researchers. This edited book provides an insightful guide to original theory and practice concerning how we can design for a better tomorrow. It offers a range of ideas and techniques through practical examples and ongoing projects for how applied design research can respond to global challenges. It shares interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary design research to demonstrate not just what could be plausible in the near future but also explain why it might be preferable. By sharing these despatches, this collection represents the very best of what design research can do, explaining how and why. This book is intended for a wide audience of professionals, scholars and students in design, architecture, public policy, as well as anyone who has an interest in how we design the world and, in turn, it designs us"-- Provided by publisher. |
