Business Culture Design
A practical guide to fostering and maintaining corporate culture through Sagmeister's Culture Map.

Simon Sagmeister introduces readers to the patterns and behaviors that form the foundation of positive culture through his innovative Culture Map, a colorful visual tool for managers and employees alike.

Culture Sensitive Design
Societies worldwide are increasingly interconnected through trade, migration, education, and digitization. This has resulted in a profound new complexity of cultural groups. Consequently, designers are confronted with the challenge of gaining a clear understanding of this cultural diversity.Culture is a complex phenomenon defined by an ongoing process of shifts in human interactions and experiences. In addition to the functional, technical, and economic requirements, it is primarily culture that defines how any designed object and service will perform and prove itself: a process that largely takes place outside the domain and control of the designer.Culture Sensitive Design provides an overview of theory as well as practical models and methods, aimed to motivate and inspire design students, practitioners, and educators to get in touch with different cultural values, customs, and symbols. It is in order to avoid mistakes that may be obstructive for certain groups of people; to enable cross-cultural cooperation; to learn more about the diverse and complex layers of culture that define who we are, how we think, how we imagine, and how we create; and to open up the design space, thereby creating a tremendous source of new ideas. Richly illustrated with examples of real life situations, the book provides everything necessary to generate optimal circumstances for the best design solutions to emerge.

Design, When Everybody Designs
The role of design, both expert and nonexpert, in the ongoing wave of social innovation toward sustainability. In a changing world everyone designs: each individual person and each collective subject, from enterprises to institutions, from communities to cities and regions, must define and enhance a life project. Sometimes these projects generate unprecedented solutions; sometimes they converge on common goals and realize larger transformations. As Ezio Manzini describes in this book, we are witnessing a wave of social innovations as these changes unfold an expansive open co-design process in which new solutions are suggested and new meanings are created. Manzini distinguishes between diffuse design (performed by everybody) and expert design (performed by those who have been trained as designers) and describes how they interact. He maps what design experts can do to trigger and support meaningful social changes, focusing on emerging forms of collaboration. These range from

À La Mode - Mode Mellan Konst, Kultur Och Kommers
Konsten att gestalta individualitet, samtid och sammanhang genom olika estetiska uttryck är idag en växande praktik som balanserar mellan olika former av kommersiella och konstnärliga fält. Sådana gestaltningspraktiker bildar tillsammans det fenomen som brukar kallas mode. På senare år har mode även blivit ett forum för vetande av olika slag. Inom akademin har mode etablerat sig som ett expanderande kunskapsområde och från politiskt håll finns förhoppningar om att design-, livsstils- och upplevelseindustrin ska kunna skapa stark tillväxt för samhällsekonomin. I Öresundsregionen talas det, som på många andra platser, allt oftare om betydelsen av kultur och kreativa näringar. Här finns bland annat Nordens största modevecka liksom det första kandidatprogrammet i modevetenskap. När design och mode har blivit viktiga nyckelord i samtiden och ett betydelsefullt regionalt drivmedel för tillväxt finns ett behov av att belysa och problematisera mode som konst, materialitet, kultur och arbete. I antologin À la mode samlas nordiska forskare från olika discipliner och med ett intresse för moderelaterade företeelser i historia och nutid. Med hjälp av nedslag i pälsindustrin, bland filmidoler från 1940-talet och hos den historiska gestalten "sprätthöken" ställs frågor kring hur modets marknad kan förstås som gränsöverskridande uttrycksform, gestaltningspraktik och tillväxtmotor. Genom exempel från modefotografer och butiksinnehavare, klädkonsumenter på nätet och professionella garderobsrensare, illustreras och analyseras fenomenet mode i relation till såväl historia som nutid. Texterna i boken visar nya dimensioner av villkoren för modets olika näringar och för dem som arbetar där ur bland annat antropologiska, etnologiska, idéhistoriska och tjänstevetenskapliga perspektiv.
