designing designing is one of the most extraordinary books on
design ever written. First published in 1984 and reprinted with
this title and cover in 1991, the book was the product of ten years
of auto-critique, reflection and experimentation on writing on
designing. Offering a savage auto-critique of his own work on
"methods", as well as of the wider methods and ends of advanced
industrial societies as a whole, this book challenges the
traditional product- and progress- orientated focus on design by
insisting that the world now coming into being requires designing
to be understood as 'a response to the whole of life.' But
designing designing is also unique in modern design thinking in its
exploration of what writing on designing might be. Combining
essays, interviews, reflections, performances, plays, poems, chance
procedures, photographs, collages and quotes, Jones experiments
with both form and content in an attempt to make a book which 'is
not simply about designing but is instead itself an instance of the
ideas and processes explored within it.'
