商品描述
How to develop an ethical design practice and build a better world. The choices made by designers have a significant effect on the world. Yet so much of the discourse on design focuses on aesthetics rather than ethics. In The New Designer, acclaimed author Manuel Lima aims to change this by challenging common myths and preconceptions about what comprises good design. He argues that designers must take responsibility for the personal, societal, cultural, and environmental impact of their work, rather than simply following a standard template. As he covers fields ranging from graphic design to industrial design to user-experience design, Lima identifies the major steps that designers must take to be a force for good in the world. Rather than sticking to outmoded ideas about perfectionism and individual genius, designers must work together to tackle some of the most challenging questions of the twenty-first century. How do you make room for humanity, with all its wondrous variations, in a society increasingly driven by metrics, algorithms, and profit? How can ecologically responsible designers consider a product's entire life cycle and look well into the future? And how can designers better respond to a community's local needs while taking advantage of global networks? Blending approaches derived from ethics, psychology, economics, and ecology, The New Designer is a vital, field-changing treatise that will appeal to any reader who seeks to understand design's massive influence on the contemporary world.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
如何發展一個道德設計實踐並建立一個更美好的世界。
設計師的選擇對世界有著重大的影響。然而,關於設計的討論往往著重於美學而非倫理。在《新設計師》中,著名作家曼努埃爾·利馬(Manuel Lima)旨在改變這種情況,挑戰關於什麼是好設計的常見迷思和預設觀念。他主張設計師必須對其工作的個人、社會、文化和環境影響負責,而不僅僅是遵循標準模板。
在涵蓋從平面設計到工業設計再到用戶體驗設計的領域時,利馬確定了設計師在世界上成為一股正能量所必須採取的主要步驟。設計師不能堅持過時的完美主義和個人天才觀念,而是必須共同努力解決二十一世紀最具挑戰性的問題。在一個越來越受度量、算法和利潤驅動的社會中,如何為人性留出空間,包容其所有奇妙的變化?生態負責任的設計師如何考慮產品的整個生命周期並展望未來?設計師如何更好地回應社區的本地需求,同時利用全球網絡的優勢?
《新設計師》結合了倫理學、心理學、經濟學和生態學的方法,是一部重要的、改變領域的論文,將吸引任何希望了解設計對當代世界巨大影響的讀者。
