In Design for Services, Anna Meroni and Daniela Sangiorgi
articulate what Design is doing and can do for services, and how
this connects to existing fields of knowledge and practice.
Designers previously saw their task as the conceptualisation,
development and production of tangible objects. In the twenty-first
century, a designer rarely 'designs something' but rather 'designs
for something': in the case of this publication, for change, better
experiences and better services. The authors reflect on this recent
transformation in the practice, role and skills of designers, by
organising their book into three main sections. The first section
links Design for Services to existing models and studies on
services and service innovation. Section two presents multiple
service design projects to illustrate and clarify the issues,
practices and theories that characterise the discipline today;
using these case studies the authors propose a conceptual framework
that maps and describes the role of designers in the service
economy. The final section projects the discipline into the
emerging paradigms of a new economy to initiate a reflection on its
future development.
