Unfrozen

Meer over het boek

Design Research Today encompasses a selection of research projects that were presented at the Unfrozen Conference. Unfrozen literally refers to the desire to create a warm atmosphere and to break the ice between specialist and design research disciplines. Ruth Baumeister starts with a retrospective of design history: beginning with the central conflict between Max Bill and Asger Jorn, two prototypical energies of design are put into perspective that are also found in the other chapters.
