How do common household items such as basic plastic house wares or
high-tech digital cameras transform our daily lives? "The Design of
Everyday Life" considers this question in detail, from the design
of products through to their use in the home. Drawing on interviews
with consumers themselves, the authors look at how everyday
objects, ranging from screwdrivers to photo management software,
are used on a practical level. Closely investigating the design,
production and use of mass-market goods, the authors offer new
interpretations of how consumers' needs are met and manufactured.
They examine the dynamic interaction of products with everyday
practices. The Design of Everyday Life offers a fresh perspective
on material culture, drawing crucial--and previously
overlooked--links between design, consumption and use.
