Abstract

Playgrounds offer children the opportunity to slide, seesaw, swing, climb, skate, and do much more. They enhance children’s motor skills along with their social interaction skills. Playgrounds are considered the most important areas for children and youths outside the home and school environment. The key to the success of this demanding design task is the productive cooperation of architects and designers, landscape architects and urban planners, educators, artists and play equipment manufacturers.This illustrated volume is dedicated to today's 'kidscapes', presenting the most innovative international concepts and current trends. The projects that were carefully selected for this volume all have one thing in common – they offer fantasy worlds and play oases that combine the highest levels of aesthetics and design, play, adventure and safety to provide children with room to unfold their creativity and share it with others.

Abstract

As economic problems make some shy away from grandiose, long-lasting buildings, a wave of new temporary buildings and architecture is sweeping over the planet. These can have uses from emergency relief to concert or performance venues. Another fascinating area that is covered here is exhibition and fair design, a veritable treasure trove of exciting designs that come and go in the space of a week or less, to showcase fashion, jewelry, or design. Fashion shows or art displays are all part of this dynamic trend that includes some of the great names in contemporary architecture like Zaha Hadid or Rem Koolhaas, but also many architects that you have never heard of until now!Featured architects and practices include:&#13;&#13;Werner Aisslinger, Atelier Bow Wow, Aybar Mateos, Cecil Balmond, Shigeru Ban, Bernardes Jacobsen, BIG, Alberto Campo Baeza, Carmody Groarke, Santiago Cirugeda, Coop Himmelb(l)au, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Ecosistema Urbano, Olafur Eliasson, Ammar Eloueini, Essentia, Established & Sons, Fantastic Norway, Mark Fisher, Massimiliano Fuksas, Laurent Grasso & Pascal Grasso, Zaha Hadid, Heatherwick, Institute of Computational Design, Toyo Ito, Adam Kalkin, Ken Min Architects, Koers Mulder, Adolf Krischanitz, Liu Jiakun, LOT-EK, MAPT, Miralles Tagliabue, MOS, Eric Owen Moss, NASA, Ivan Navarro, Jean Nouvel, OBRA Architects, OMA, OMD, John Pawson, Philippe Rahm, Raumlabor Berlin, Francesc Rifé, Michel Rojkind, Rotor, Tomás Saraceno, SO-IL, Tamassociati, Javier Terrados Cepeda, UNStudio, Helena Willemeit, Tokujin Yoshioka

Abstract

Design ist heute zu einem globalen Instrument geworden. Seine Entwicklung und Bedeutung wird anhand ausgewählter Länder Europas, Amerikas und Asiens vorgestellt. Mannigfaltige Unternehmensbeispiele machen das Buch zu einem aktuellen internationalen Kompendium des Designs. Der Autor zeigt die Entwicklung des Designs von seinen Anfängen im ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert über die wichtigsten Bewegungen des 20. Jahrhunderts bis hin zur biologischen Wende, die das 21. Jahrhundert bestimmen wird. Die wichtigsten Grundlagen der Designtheorie und -methodologie werden vorgestellt, besonders auch die kommunikativen Funktionen der Produkte. Die aktuellen Erweiterungen hin zum Corporate- und Service Design, Design-Management und strategischem Design, Interface/Interaction-Design bis hin zum Human Design werden erläutert und anhand zahlreicher Beispiele anschaulich gemacht. Design today is a global instrument. Bernhard Bürdek traces the progress of design from its beginnings in the late 19th century, through the most significant movements of the 20th century up to those recent developments in biological engineering which will shape the 21st century. Design is now a discipline in its own right and its expertise can be incorporated within interdisciplinary processes. The most important fundamental principles of design theory and methodology are presented, looking in particular at the communicative function of products and highlighting aspects such as corporate and service design, design management, strategic design, interface/interaction design and human design.
