The Disobedience of Design
Author: Lara PeninPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350162469
Category : Design
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
This volume presents for the first time in English a curated selection of writings by the design thinker Gui Bonsiepe from the 1960s to the present day. Addressing as it does questions of non-Western design and a design practice that is both radical and democratic, Bonsiepe's work has assumed new importance for current debates inspired by global political and environmental crises. Structured into three sections, the anthology first addresses Bonsiepe's work on design theory and practice, particularly in relation to the history and contemporary relevance of the Ulm design school, where Bonsiepe was a professor in the 1960s. A second section then represents Bonsiepe's writings after his move to South America in the 1960s and '70s, where he worked as a design consultant for the Allende government in Chile before the military takeover. In writings from the period, Bonsiepe explores the concept of design 'at the periphery' and the relationship of national design traditions and practices in Latin American countries to those of 'the core' - Western European and American design. The final section comprises selections of Bonsiepe's writings on design in relation to literacy and language, visuality and cognition. This indispensable volume includes new interviews with Bonsiepe as well as his original, previously unpublished texts.

Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Emprender es un juego en donde tienes todo en contra. Más del 90% de los emprendimientos fracasan. Solo un pequeño porcentaje de emprendedores tienen éxito. Aún después de convertirse en ese pequeño grupo de emprendedores con negocios exitosos, muchos terminan siendo esclavos de su negocio: estaban buscando la líbertad que promete el emprendimiento, y construyeron una operación que depende de ellos: se convirtieron en autoempreados. Una de las razones principales del fracaso de los negocios es la falta de conocimiento. Los emprendedores no han sido educados en los principios, modelos y sistemas para contruir negocios exitosos. En Emprendedor: Conquista el arte de los negocios, Victor Hugo Manzanilla, emprendedor en serie y ejecutivo de empresas Fortune 500, nos muestra los principios, modelos y sistemas para construir negocios con éxito. Desde cómo dar el salto del empleo al emprendimiento, hasta los principios para construir marcas exitosas, cómo leer estados financieros y dominar el arte de las ventas, este libro te estregará lo más importante para convertirte en un emprendedor sólido. Este es un libro para cualquier persona que tenga el sueño de crear algo para sí mismo, y que tenga la valentía y el compromiso de llevarlo a la realidad.

Urbanismo Regenerativo
Author: LandlabPublisher: Actar D, Inc.
ISBN: 1638401098
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
We are living in a critical moment, a reality marked by environmental and socio-economic limits that requires innovative and realistic forms of action and planning. This is what regenerative urbanism proposes, a new approach based on utopian pragmatism that seeks to restore balance to the urban territory by designing systems that allow it to adapt and transform. It is a methodology that defines models that do not consume available resources, but rather generate new ones that ensure compatibility between economic and social prosperity and nature. Santander, Hábitat Futuro (Santander, Future Habitat) is the city model created from this methodology, a proposal for the transformation of this city for the year 2055. It is an open model based on innovation and citizen participation that prepares and adapts the territory for the different scenarios to come. Santander, Habitat Futuro is a guide that directs the commitment of the different social, economic and political agents towards a common goal: to achieve a circular, sustainable, resilient, vertebrate, prosperous, vital and inclusive city. A model that, due to its innovative nature, can serve as an example to other intermediate cities around the world.

Learning from Bogotá
Author: Rachel BerneyPublisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 1477311068
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Once known as a “drug capital” and associated with kidnappings, violence, and excess, Bogotá, Colombia, has undergone a transformation that some have termed “the miracle of Bogotá.” Beginning in the late 1980s, the city emerged from a long period of political and social instability to become an unexpected model of urban development through the redesign and revitalization of the public realm—parks, transportation, and derelict spaces—under the leadership of two “public space mayors,” Antanas Mockus and Enrique Peñalosa (the latter reelected in 2015). In Learning from Bogotá, Rachel Berney analyzes how these mayors worked to reconfigure the troubled city into a pedagogical one whose public spaces and urban policy have helped shape a more tolerant and aware citizenry. Berney examines the contributions of Mockus and Peñalosa through the lenses of both spatial/urban design and the city’s history. She shows how, through the careful intertwining of new public space and transportation projects, the reclamation of privatized public space, and the refurbishment of dilapidated open spaces, the mayors enacted an ambitious urban vision for Bogotá without resorting to the failed method of the top-down city master plan. Illuminating the complex interplay between formal politics, urban planning, and improvised social strategies, as well as the negative consequences that accompanied Bogotá’s metamorphosis, Learning from Bogotá offers significant lessons about the possibility for positive and lasting change in cities around the world.
