Qu'est-ce que le concept de care, issu de la philosophie féministe américaine et centré sur la notion de sollicitude, apporte au design, à ses objectifs et à ses pratiques ? En quoi le souci de l'autre le conduit-il à modifier ses objectifs, ses modes d'intervention, ses méthodes ?

Buffed to a metallic shine; loose fitting, lopsided, or kludgy; getting in the way or getting lost; collapsing in an explosion of dust caught on the warehouse CCTV. Modern things are going their own ways, and this book attempts to follow them. A course of thought about their comings and goings and cascading side effects, The Way Things Go offers a thesis demonstrated via a century-long countdown of stuff. Modernist critical theory and aesthetic method, it argues, are bound up with the inhuman fate of things as novelty becoming waste.

Cet ouvrage questionne une histoire récente du design où la notion d’ornement se donne au cœur de nouvelles logiques de conception et de production. Avec l’avènement du numérique et la redéfinition du rôle de l’ornement, la forme ornementale se donne à présent dans une dimension calculée de morphogenèse : sa dynamique s’ancre dans les processus de croissance de la nature.(...)

Cet ouvrage questionne une histoire récente du design où la notion d’ornement se donne au cœur de nouvelles logiques de conception et de production. Avec l’avènement du numérique et la redéfinition du rôle de l’ornement, la forme ornementale se donne à présent dans une dimension calculée de morphogenèse : sa dynamique s’ancre dans les processus de croissance de la nature. Dans toutes ces réalisations, la dimension générative de la nature a conféré à l’ornement un rôle structurel nouveau. S'appuyant sur une sélection d'œuvres de plus de cinquante artistes, , quatre essais (Marie-Ange Brayer, Spyros Papapetros, Martine Dancer-Mourès et Sophie Fétro), nous donnent à lire et comprendre, l'évolution du design et de l'ornement, à l'ère du numérique. / This volume presents a new narrative of design, situated somewhere between plant life and ornament, nature and artifice. Through essays by several authors it explores the ornament’s role with respect to morphogenesis, by which the object is continually transformed through an evolving dynamic of forms. With the arrival of the digital age, the ornament’s role in design has been greatly modified. No longer a simple motif, it is used as an animated form. At the intersection of information sciences and biology, designers utilise 3D printing to create carefully calculated objects based on organic growth. With contributions by Spyros Papapetros, Marie-Ange Brayer, and others.

Bringing together the work of over twenty international scholars from various disciplines, "Cultural Histories of the Material World" provides a substantial collection of works that explore materiality and material culture from a historical perspective. These scholars represent some of the most innovative voices in their respective fields, using historiographical lens to chronicle how the field of material culture has operated between multiple disciplines and has grown to prominence in the last two decades, both inside and beyond the academy. Essential reading for the study of material culture and including writing by Bill Brown, Nancy Troy, Horst Bredekamp, Jas Elsner, and Pamela H. Smith, this book builds on the recent proliferation of works that address materiality and offers unified collection of key perspectives on the material turn across the humanities.

Summary:
This book critically investigates our contemporary time crisis. The transformation of society from an agrarian to an industrial, and finally an urbanized way of living and working has created a fundamental change in our understanding of time: a 24/7 mentality. The move from natural time to the digital age leads to a fragmentation of time that deeply affects our daily biological and social rhythm. We need a new approach to time to overcome our temporal system of clocks and calendars. This book investigates a new perception of time by exploring the concept of uchronia, a term derived from the Greek u-topos and meaning 'no time' or 'non-time'. Uchronia is a way of questioning, speculating on and designing new kinds of temporal systems that are more about being in tune than on time.

In "Design by accident," Alexandra Midal declares the autonomy of design, in and on its own terms. This meticulously researched work proposes not only a counterhistory but a new historiography of design, shedding light on overlooked historical landmarks and figures while reevaluating the legacies of design's established luminaries from the nineteenth century to the(...)

Summary:

This meticulously researched work proposes not only a counterhistory but a new historiography of design, shedding light on overlooked historical landmarks and figures while reevaluating the legacies of design's established luminaries from the nineteenth century to the present. Midal rejects both linear narratives of progress and the long-held perception of design as a footnote to the histories of fine art and architecture. By weaving critical analysis of the canon of design history and theory together, with special attention to the writings of designers themselves, she draws out the nuances and radical potentials of the discipline—from William Morris's ambivalence toward industry, to Catharine Beecher's proto-feminist household appliances, to the Bauhaus's Expressionist origins, and the influence of Herbert Marcuse on Joe Colombo.

Loin de se contenter d’une interrogation (ou d’une réponse) bien formulée, Norman Potter énonce les conditions dans lesquelles l’activité de design constitue en elle-même une question ouverte. Il affirme que les décisions du designer – et les artefacts qu’elles produisent – sont tenues de proposer une réponse sur le plan social. Potter décrit également les procédures et la méthodologie indispensables à toute solution de design. Les designers trouveront dans cet ouvrage un portrait vivant de leur profession, ainsi qu’un exposé de références essentielles au mouvement moderne. Les étudiants et les enseignants découvriront une discussion d’une grande richesse, directement issue de l’expérience personnelle de l’auteur. Publié pour la première fois en 1969 en Grande-Bretagne et révisé à trois reprises, "Qu’est-ce qu’un designer" s’adresse aux étudiants et aux professionnels de tous les domaines du design et de l’architecture.
