Communication, Space, and Design : The Integral Relation between Communication and Design, Paperback / softback Book

Communication, Space, and Design : The Integral Relation between Communication and Design Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Communication, Space, and Design looks at how our worldview shapes our relations to and conceptions of space and place, and how our spaces and designs impact our communication practices.

By asserting that our spaces and designs are increasingly promoting various expressions of separation, this book contends that this separation makes us more private.

We find this increasing inwardness, for example, in the rise of gated-communities, exclusionary suburbs, and hyper-suburbs.

Ultimately, the book asks how our spaces and designs impact our understanding and embodying of democracy, civility, and justice.

It also explores how this inward turn limits our sense of obligation to the world and each other by undermining our ability to develop the communicational resiliency and moral sophistication that comes through public interactions.
