Design and Culture: A Transdisciplinary History offers an inclusive
overview that crosses disciplinary boundaries and helps define the
next phase of global design practice. This book examines the
interaction of design with advances in technology, developments in
science, and changing cultural attitudes. It looks to the past to
prepare for the future and is the first book to offer an innovative
transdisciplinary design history that integrates multidisciplinary
sources of knowledge into a mindful whole. It shows design as a
process that expresses goals through values and beliefs,
functioning as a major factor in contemporary cultural
life.Starting with the development of the Industrial Revolution,
the book focuses on the evolution of design and culture in the
twentieth century to predict where design will go in the future.
Given the major social and political shifts currently unfolding
across the globe, and the resulting changing demographics and
environmental degradation, Design and Culture encourages
collaboration and communication between disciplines to prepare for
the future of design in a rapidly changing world.
