At a time when we are forced to face great and tumultuous changes on different fronts, from the environmental to the technological, Alice Rawsthorn explores how new generations of designers use digital tools to pursue their social, political or ecological objectives.

The award-winning British design critic and author brings together Design as an attitude unpublished texts in which he addresses essential aspects of contemporary design: from its role in the interpretation of new technologies to its role in the environmental crisis, through its function in the expression of our identities or the digital empowerment of the new wave of designers in Africa.

Addressing the great challenges and transformations in contemporary design, this book offers us a lucid vision of the impact it has on us, now and in the future.
