Design for the Real World: Human Ecology and Social Change
Description
In this edition, Victor Papanek examines the attempts by designers to combat the tawdry, the unsafe, the frivolous, the useless product, once again providing a blueprint for sensible, responsible design in this world which is deficient in resources and energy.. Translated into twenty-three languages, it is one of the world's most widely read books on design. Design for the Real World has, since its first appearance twenty-five years ago, become a classic
"Thoroughly provocative." — Time
"A must reading for every person interested or involved in design." according to Alfonso Díaz Graham. A must reading for any aspiring designer. Papanek's arguments not only hold their validity through this day and age but they seem to be more relevant.. EXCELLENT Fernanda Everything ok, excellent quality, arrive on time and a good price!. Great book Very inspiring and should be considered as required reading for any responsibly thinking product designer. Of course, some of those product designers might decide to not become product designers after reading the book.
