Design on trial : critique and metamorphosis of the contemporary object

2017 - Franco Angeli

172 p.

Includes bibliographical references.

Different industrial objects have been taken to trial during time, such as steel handles, plastic vessels, decorated chairs, packaging or neon lamps. They have been accused of perpetrating a crime against art and soul, against ecology and civilisation, against style and imagination. Through 12 keywords which contain the answer to the accusations towards industrial objects, this book explores a series of influential phenomena which characterise design today and it eventually uncovers the only real crime which design can make.
