Plug-Ins

This book’s central argument is that plug-ins, situated design outcomes that aim to enrich the complex system of the city and expand its potentialities, are a solid yet supple conceptual framework for rethinking how design can be a key agent in city making. This book showcases some of the projects developed by Elisava’s Design for City Making Research Lab, a research institute that investigates the role of design in the material and social construction of our habitats, focusing on spatiality, temporality, interactions, meaning, citizen engagement and social impact.

Expanding the Frontiers of Design

Design Thinking, a method widely used in design business and management, has changed the landscape of contemporary design. Whereas in the past non-designers were called upon to serve as external consultants ad-hoc, in an effort to promote creativity and innovation most design teams now consist of a mix of designers and other professionals. The impact of this development on the design landscape in recent years is so far without thorough investigation and analysis of its various influences. This book comprises an edited collection of selected papers from the 13th Design Thinking Research Symposium (DTRS13) which offers an exploration of Design Thinking from theoretical, practical, and pedagogi...

Dieses Buch diskutiert die Digitalisierung, Robotisierung und Automatisierung der Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft und den Einsatz von künstlicher Intelligenz aus einer ethischen Perspektive.

Anschließend werden Chancen und Herausforderungen der digitalen Transformation aus einer ethischen Sicht analysiert.

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book addresses the complex relationship between architecture and public life. It’s a study of architecture and urbanism as cultural activity that both reflects and gives shape to our social relations, public institutions and political processes. Written by an international range of contributors, the chapters address the intersection of public life and the built environment around the themes of authority and planning, the welfare state, place and identity and autonomy. The book covers a diverse range of material from Foucault’s evolving thoughts on space to land-scraping leisure centres in inter-war Belgium. It unpacks concepts such as ‘community’ and ‘collectivity’ alongside themes of self-organisation and authorship. Architecture and Collective Life reflects on urban and architectural practice and historical, political and social change. As such this book will be of great interest to students and academics in architecture and urbanism as well as practicing architects.

Comunicació I Estratègia

Avui dia les empreses no es diferencien pels seus productes, sinó per la imatge que projecten en la societat, cosa que situa la comunicació en el cor de l'estratègia de qualsevol organització. Tradicionalment, la comunicació es trobava entre les «lògiques marginals» de les empreses, allà on s'amunteguen els sentiments, les relacions personals i tot allò que no es pot reduir a un número en el compte de resultats. Quan el valor afegit es troba en els sentiments, en les relacions personals i, en definitiva, en la resta de valors intangibles, la comunicació passa a ser una peça clau per gestionar les organitzacions. Aquest llibre parla de la comunicació com a estratègia en les organitzacions. Això vol dir que la comunicació no és un simple instrument al servei de la gestió, sinó un aspecte fonamental de la gestió en les organitzacions.
