Design Unbound

Más información sobre el libro

This work offers tools for navigating the complexities of today's hyper-connected and rapidly changing world. It introduces a new practice influenced by complexity science, enabling a fresh perspective on our entangled reality. By freeing design from its traditional material constraints, it focuses on creating contexts as complex systems. In a world characterized by systemic causality and flux, the emphasis shifts from designing for absolute outcomes to fostering emergence. The text not only presents this argument theoretically but also provides practical tools for implementation. Through diverse case studies, including innovative universities and societal transformations, it draws on a wide range of fields such as architecture, science, philosophy, and the arts. Presented in five books across two volumes, it caters to various audiences, from architects to those rethinking higher education and public policy professionals. The authors offer multiple entry points, enabling readers to chart their own paths through the content.
