Expanding Territories of Materials and Design

About this book

Materials Experience 2: Expanding Territories of Materials and Design is the follow-up companion to Materials Experience published in 2014. Materials experience as a concept has evolved substantially and is now mobilized to incorporate new ways of thinking and designing. Through all-new peer-reviewed chapters and project write-ups, the book presents critical perspectives on new and emerging relationships between designers, materials, and artifacts. Subtitled Expanding Territories of Materials and Design, the book examines in depth the increased prevalence of material-driven design practices, as well as the changing role of materials themselves, toward active and influential agents within and outside design processes. The book is essential reading for anyone involved in materials and design, containing 11 authoritative chapters and 18 illustrated accounts of contemporary research projects and practices. - Presents both the knowledge and understanding of what 'new and emerging materials' are, where they come from, and how they can be used effectively in design - Looks at how the professional responsibility of material selection is evolving into a more complex and active role of material 'creation' and 'appropriation' - Explores how an elevated sensitivity to materials influence people's experiences of the designed world
