"The Good City: Design for Sustainability". Master Conference delivered at the VIII International Congress of Design Forma 2015, Havana, June 2015.

Victor Margolin

Abstract

Design is undergoing a momentous change. Where designers were once known for creating the visual appearance of products, whether coffee pots or posters, today they are becoming recognized for their work on the design of services, organizations (including government agencies) and even social networks. Specializations such as interaction design, experience design, social design, and design for sustainability did not exist a few years ago. The older projects of designing artifacts have not disappeared but the recognition that design can be so much more is growing.
