Critical Design is becoming an increasingly influential discipline,
affecting policy and practice in a range of fields. Matt Malpass's
book is the first to introduce critical design as a field,
providing a history of the discipline, outlining its key
influences, theories and approaches, and explaining how critical
design can work in practice through a range of contemporary
examples. Critical Design moves away from traditional approaches
that limit design's role to the production of profitable objects,
focusing instead on a practice that is interrogative, discursive
and experimental. Using a wide range of examples from contemporary
practice, and drawing on interviews with key practitioners, Matt
Malpass provides an introduction to critical design practice and a
manifesto for how a radical and unorthodox practice might provide
design answers in an age of austerity and ecological crisis.
