Designing Futures: Speculation, Critique, Innovation
Design Futuring is a young field of activity where designers and other creatives sketch and experiment with different (desirable) futures, making them comprehensible. In this highly illustrated volume, authors Eileen Mandir and Benedikt Groß present methods and tools that enable practitioners to design far more than surfaces and interfaces. These are methods and tools that not only anticipate possible futures but, in the best-case scenario, will enable them to be designers of a better world. Complete with projects from designers and innovation hubs throughout the world: from a global seed vaults in Norway and renewable energy lab in the UAE, to a brand creating clothes that grow as your child grows in France and grass covered automobiles in Germany.
