Résumé:
Synesthetic design strives to develop products that systematically incorporate all five senses. In future, the current wealth of medical technical insights in psychology, physiology, motor functions, and neurology and the development of innovative materials with astonishing new properties will open up almost unlimited opportunities for the designer s creativity. Haverkamp brings together for the first time precisely those aspects of this fundamental knowledge that are specifically relevant for designers. The result is a clear and well-organized handbook that offers designers of all schools a a solid foundation for their own designs. Michael Haverkamp has been working on the concept of multi-sensory design for many years; he is an internationally recognized expert on sound design and synesthesia research in general.

Résumé:
This publication features design projects organized into six working themes: Act, Save, Share, Live, Learn and Make. It is a true manual--in format and content--featuring design solutions that expand access to education, food, health care and affordable housing; increase social and economic inclusion; offer improved alternative transportation options, and provide a balanced approach to land use between the built and natural environments. Cooper Hewitt Curator Cynthia E. Smith traveled to post-industrial cities, urban areas impacted by natural disasters, sprawling cities, places of persistent poverty and major metropolitan regions. Her research yielded nearly 400 potential projects from over 30 states and three indigenous nations (Navajo, Lakota, Pueblo).

Résumé:
The question Are We Human? is both urgent and ancient. Beatriz Colomina and Mark Wigley offer a multi-layered exploration of the intimate relationship between human and design and rethink the philosophy of design in a multi-dimensional exploration from the very ?rst tools and ornaments to the constant buzz of social media. The average day involves the experience of thousands of layers of design that reach to outside space but also reach deep into our bodies and brains. Even the planet itself has been completely encrusted by design as a geological layer. There is no longer an outside to the world of design. Colomina’s and Wigley’s field notes offer an archaeology of the way design has gone viral and is now bigger than the world. They range across the last few hundred thousand years and the last few seconds to scrutinize the uniquely plastic relation between brain and artifact.

Le confort, une discipline douce ? Tomás Maldonado pose la question dès les premières pages de cette anthologie. Les textes rassemblés ici – inédits, nouvellement traduits, dispersés ou difficilement accessibles – abordent cette notion clef à travers la conception du cadre de vie et de l’environnement domestique. Qu’ils témoignent d’une expérience ou affirment des postures théoriques, les écrits d’architectes et de designers répondent à différents points de vue de scientifiques : historien, sociologue, anthropologue, psychologue, médecin, etc. Des faudesteuils médiévaux aux réfrigérateurs connectés, du zazen au tourisme spatial : le spectre du confort se dévoile au fil de ces pages – parfois mou, souvent flou, omniprésent, insaisissable.

Résumé:
"Qu’est-ce qu’un designer" est un témoignage ardent et critique destiné à tous les acteurs du design. 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.

Résumé:
In this engaging new book, design theorist Louise Schouwenberg (born 1954) and designer Hella Jongerius (born 1963) examine the meaning and agency of objects, exploring how things act as mediators between people and the world both in everyday life and in the context of the museum. As technology continues to change these relationships, Schouwenberg and Jongerius thoughtfully consider the agency of our objects. Questioning the market's obsession with novelty in design, the authors try to develop criteria for recognizing true cultural innovation. What distinguishes novelty for the sake of novelty from something truly new? Designed by the legendary Irma Boom, the book itself is a love letter to creative design.

Résumé:
Excluded from traditional design history and educational canons that heavily favor European modernist influences, the work and experiences of Black designers have been systematically overlooked in the profession for decades. However, given the national focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the aftermath of the nationwide Black Lives Matter protests in the United States, educators, practitioners, and students now have the opportunity to make long-term, systemic changes in design education, research, and practice, reclaiming the contributions of Black designers in the process. This anthology centers on a range of perspectives, spotlights teaching practices, research, stories, and conversations from a Black/African diasporic lens. Through the voices represented, this text exemplifies the inherently collaborative and multidisciplinary nature of design, providing access to ideas and topics for a variety of audiences, meeting people as they are and wherever they are in their knowledge about design. Ultimately, this book serves as both inspiration and a catalyst for the next generation of creative minds tasked with imagining, shaping, and designing our future.

Résumé:
It is not a book about colors. It is rather Kenya Hara’s attempt to explore the essence of "White", which he sees as being closely related to the origin of Japanese aesthetics – symbolizing simplicity and subtlety. The central concepts discussed by the author in this publication are emptiness and the absolute void. Good communication is the ability to listen to each other, rather than to press one’s opinion onto the opponent. Kenya Hara compares this form of communication with an "empty container". In visual communication, there are equally signals whose signification is limited, which, like an "empty container," permit signification and do not limit imagination. The Japanese character for white also forms a radical of the character for emptiness.
