What is craft? How is it different from fine art or design? In A Theory of Craft, Howard Risatti examines these issues by comparing handmade ceramics, glass, metalwork, weaving, and furniture to painting, sculpture, photography, and machine-made design from Bauhaus to the Memphis Group. He describes craft's unique qualities as functionality combined with an ability to express human values that transcend temporal, spatial, and social boundaries.Modern design today has taken over from craft the making of functional objects of daily use by employing machines to do work once done by

Ce livre défend une thèse provocante : notre avenir, écrit Vilém Flusser, sera avant tout affaire de "design". En effet, le design représente la confluence d'idées nouvelles empruntées à la science, à l'art, à l'économie et à la politique. C'est de façon apparemment toute naturelle que des éléments hétérogènes s'y combinent en un réseau complexe de relations. Dans des essais, des conférences, de courts textes en prose, Flusser étudie la situation actuelle et le style de l'époque à venir, son design. L'éventail est largement ouvert : ce volume comporte des réflexions sur les plans de câblage des ordinateurs et la fin des villes, des remarques sur la forme à donner aux fusées et aux parapluies. Il rassemble les textes de Vilém Flusser sur le design : considérations d'ordre phénoménologique sur notre environnement quotidien qu'il domine, gloses ironiques sur des objets et scénarios d'avenir, empreints d'une noire cruauté.

Fondé en 2006, le laboratoire analyse architecture (laa) est le lieu de recherches interdisciplinaires dans les domaines de la théorie de l'architecture et de l’architecture théorique. Régulièrement, il diffuse sur son site web (www.lelaa.be) les travaux de ses membres actifs ou invités. Dix ans après la mise en place de cet espace de travail où s’est déployé un tracé entre disciplines – architecture, anthropologie, philosophie, psychanalyse, linguistique, histoire de l’art – de ce qu’il en est de l’architecture et de ses effets, il est apparu qu’un point d’étape méritait d’être réalisé ; qu’il y avait lieu d’acter les contributions cardinales du laa. Cet ouvrage rassemble les textes publiés sur le site du laa entre 2006 et 2016 qui ont proposé un tour voire un détour spéculatif propice à fourbir les instruments de la théorie de l’architecture. Founded in 2006, the Laboratory for Analysis and Architecture (LAAS) is a place of interdisciplinary research in the fields of theory of architecture and theoretical architecture. Regularly, it publishes on its website (www.lelaa.be) the work of its active members (or guests) the disciplines of architecture, anthropology, philosophy, psychoanalysis, linguistics, and history of art from the point of view of architecture and its effects.This book gathers the texts published on the website of the LAAS between 2006 and 2016.

While investigations into both theories and models has remained a major strand of engineering design research, current literature sorely lacks a reference book that provides a comprehensive and up-to-date anthology of theories and models, and their philosophical and empirical underpinnings; An Anthology of Theories and Models of Design fills this gap. The text collects the expert views of an international authorship, covering: ·         significant theories in engineering design, including CK theory, domain theory, and the theory of technical systems; ·         current models of design, from a function behavior structure model to an integrated model; ·         important empirical research findings from studies into design; and ·         philosophical underpinnings of design itself. For educators and researchers in engineering design, An Anthology of Theories and Models of Design gives access to in-depth coverage of theoretical and empirical developments in this area; for practitioners, the book will provide exposure to theoretical and empirical foundations to methods and tools that are currently practiced as well as those in the process of development.

Design is one of the most powerful forces in our lives, and has never been more exciting. At a time when so many aspects of our lives are changing at relentless speed on an unprecedented scale, design is increasingly seen as a means of helping us to benefit from the opportunities created by those changes, and to avoid the dangers. Public interest is soaring as a new generation of designers is using advanced technologies to pursue their political and environmental objectives in increasingly ambitious projects, as well as to reinvent the objects and spaces we use every day. Conceived as a subjective field guide to design, Alice Rawsthorn's "Design as an Attitude" demystifies the field, explores the most dynamic developments in contemporary design, and assesses their impact on our lives now and in the future, acting as a comprehensive survey of design today.
