Design For More-Than-Human Futures
This book explores the work of important authors in the search for a transition towards more ethical design focused on more-than-human coexistence. In a time of environmental crises in which the human species threatens its own survival and the highest level of exacerbation of the idea of a future and technological innovation, it is important to discard certain anthropocentric categories in order to situate design beyond the role that it traditionally held in the capitalist world, creating opportunities to create more just and sustainable worlds. This book is an invitation to travel new paths for design framed by ethics of more-than-human coexistence that breaks with the unsustainability inst...
Design(s) for Law
Legal design has been with us for over a decade. Its core idea, i.e. to use design methods to make the world of law accessible to all, has been widely embraced by academics, researchers, and professionals. Over time, the field has grown, expanding its initial problem-solving approach to other dimensions of design, such as speculative design, design fiction, proactive law, and disciplines like cognitive science and philosophy. The book presents a state-of-the-art reflection on legal design evolution and applications. It features twelve insightful contributions discussed during the 2023 'Legal Design Roundtable' on 'Design(s) for Law', organised within the Erasmus+ Jean Monnet clinic on 'EU Digital Rights, Law, and Design'. These perspectives from academics and professionals add important nuances to the literature, either presenting new approaches, applying consolidated practices to new contexts and areas, or showcasing actual and potential applications. Ideal for academics, legal professionals, and students, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in new critical approaches to the law and in the creative construction of fairer and more human-friendly legal systems.
Still Life
How do you keep the cracks in Starry Night from spreading? How do you prevent artworks made of hugs or candies from disappearing? How do you render a fading photograph eternal—or should you attempt it at all? These are some of the questions that conservators, curators, registrars, and exhibition designers dealing with contemporary art face on a daily basis. In Still Life, Fernando Domínguez Rubio delves into one of the most important museums of the world, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, to explore the day-to-day dilemmas that museum workers face when the immortal artworks that we see in the exhibition room reveal themselves to be slowly unfolding disasters. Still Life offers ...
Routledge Handbook of Sustainable Design
The Routledge Handbook of Sustainable Design considers the design, not only of artifacts, but of structures, systems, and interactions in the context of sustaining our shared planet. This revised edition introduces new and updated chapters, as well as a new section on pedagogy for sustainable design. With authors from around the world, design is positioned in context with recent crises such as global pandemics, racial reckoning, political unrest, and natural disasters. Just as design is an interdisciplinary field, the climate crisis is deeply tangled in racial justice, gender justice, global health, economics, trade, and more. Divided into six sections, it presents a holistic approach to und...

Caminando
Las grandes ciudades modernas también regalan ciertas ocasiones de ver y sentir lo inmenso que solo muy de vez en cuando se ofrece entre fronteras. Las calles estrechas para las multitudes, los ríos canalizados que hunden sus hilos en el cemento, las torres que rajan nubes y vientos compitiendo por dominar las alturas, el laberinto de sus grutas para dormir y comer. La acumulación amplia y apretada, profunda y altiva de los obstáculos que luchan por anteponerse a la visión ambiciosa de anchura, habla, en cambio, de la laboriosa inventiva humana como de un pozo sin límites. También esta es capaz de denunciar sensiblemente una inmensidad que forma parte del mundo entero, ese desconocido al que pertenecemos y al que iremos a parar en definitiva.
Suspensiones
El presente libro es un proyecto editorial de la Facultad de Arquitectura, Diseño y Estudios Urbanos de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, liderado por su decano Mario Ubilla, que busca relevar las iniciativas que se desarrollaron durante el período 2020-2022 en el contexto de la pandemia mundial. El COVID-19 impactó el quehacer de la universidad al transformar los modos de trabajo y los temas de investigación y práctica, afectando directamente la generación de nuevos conocimientos y perspectivas disciplinares. Esta publicación incorpora casi treinta trabajos de diversa índole que se concretaron durante este período, incluyendo temas de arquitectura, diseño y estudios urbanos, los cuales fueron convocados a través de un llamado abierto a los docentes e investigadores de la FADEU UC.
Designforschung und Designwissenschaft
Von Gestaltung jenseits ästhetischer Traditionslinien zu sprechen, heißt zwangsläufig das moderne Design in den Blick zu nehmen. Zwischen Alltagskultur und Design-Avantgarden bewegen sich vielfältige interdisziplinäre Strömungen, deren theoretische Modelle in Kontextualisierungen und Analysen der Designwissenschaft zusammenlaufen. Hier zeigt sich bereits eine geisteswissenschaftliche Durchdringung und Akzeptanz des Designs als epidemisches Gegenstück zur freien Kunst, wobei diese Meta-Perspektive letztlich eine Forschung „über Design“ darstellt. Design als konkrete Praxis begriffen artikuliert sich jedoch als Relation von Problem, Entwurf und Prototyp, so dass ein handlungstheore...
