Résumé:
This book is an attempt to tell a story from the closest point of a source. Before it is supposed to be a gossip. Before the juice is added and still is a bit boring and stiff. When looking up at reliable sources like Wikipedia and Google, the word gossip: ''Originates from God-sib, he Godparent of one's child, referring to a relationship of close friendship'' and it is also: '' An event between loose mouthed assholes, that happens as soon as you get into high-school, and follows you all the way to your death bed. It never ends.'' It is also: '' In it's form one of the oldest and most common means of spreading and sharing facts, with a reputation of errors and other variations'' This we of course found highly interesting so we did this book based on that, about the variations of a story when it comes from the same source. To try it out we asked people from the graphics design department in the Rietveld Academy, to re-tell us a story we are supposed to know better than others.

Résumé:
What does it mean to do something for free versus asking a lot? How much can we ask? Graphic design does not have any intrinsic value. Money is important, but also not an openly discussed topic. Even though guidelines for charging exist, we often have to negotiate our prices. The texts in this book are based on interviews made in 2006/2007 with freelance graphic designers. They range from students and beginners to designers with many years of professional experience, from a one-man ste-up tp a bigger studio with employees. Inside you'll find a wild, wide range of prices, different ways of calculating a price, problems, strategies, principles, numbers and a lot of zeros.

Résumé:
En proposant un point de vue nouveau sur le monde et la société, la recherche-création s’éloigne de la conception traditionnelle du design, conçu comme pur développement de produits. Tout en dépassant les cadres universitaires de l’histoire, de l’esthétique ou de la sociologie, cette approche innovante ouvre un horizon concret de réflexions sur les enjeux contemporains du design et des disciplines issues des sciences humaines. Elle permet également d’établir un dialogue fertile entre les différents champs de la création. Lysianne Léchot Hirt, qui a largement contribué à théoriser cette approche, envisageait son champ d’investigation comme une matière vivante, profondément ancrée dans le quotidien et nécessitant d’être observée avec le regard, disait-elle, d’une «ethnographe». Ce livre réunit une sélection de ses essais les plus marquants, suivis de plusieurs contributions de personnes ayant oeuvré dans son sillage.

Life as a design student is filled with questions. Rochester Institute of Technology Associate Professor of Design Mitch Goldstein has many answers, shared in clear, clever, and sage advice that is helpful for students at any level of their education, as well as anyone thinking about attending design school and wondering what it's really all about. For design students and art professionals, Goldstein is a brilliant resource for real-world thoughts about design school and creative practice. Drawing on 16 years of teaching design and his popular "Dear Design Student" Twitter project, Goldstein explores all aspects of how to get the most out of the school experience, and beyond as a creative professional. From collaboration and critiques to practice and process, this is an inspiring roadmap for design students as well as a valuable guide for design professors to help them understand how to shape curriculum from a student's perspective and better the collaborative experience.

Résumé:
How human behavior brought our world to the brink, and how human behavior can save us. The world is a mess. Our dire predicament, from collapsing social structures to the climate crisis, has been millennia in the making and can be traced back to the erroneous belief that the earth's resources are infinite. The key to change, says Don Norman, is human behavior, covered in the book's three major themes: meaning, sustainability, and humanity-centeredness. Emphasize quality of life, not monetary rewards; restructure how we live to better protect the environment; and focus on all of humanity. ''Design for a better world'' presents an eye-opening diagnosis of where we've gone wrong and a clear prescription for making things better. Norman proposes a new way of thinking, one that recognizes our place in a complex global system where even simple behaviors affect the entire world. He identifies the economic metrics that contribute to the harmful effects of commerce and manufacturing and proposes a recalibration of what we consider important in life. His experience as both a scientist and business executive gives him the perspective to show how to make these changes while maintaining a thriving economy. Let the change begin with this book before it's too late.
