Design at the Multitudocene - 2018.


88

If the design throughout the twentieth century stimulated industrial growth with development projects that followed the ideals of universality, it seems to be moving today towards the possibilities of a pluriversal growth: in the face of economic but also ecological crises, resistance, resilience and resurgence are among the concerns and practices of contemporary designers. They constitute this time of correspondences, of controversies and, also, of conflicts which one can designate by Multitudocene and where to follow the lines means to follow the local and global struggles.
