This book brings together a new generation of designers, architects and artists exploring how to reorient their practices for the flourishing of other species. Design is deeply associated with creating a better way of life – for humans. Yet we exist alongside billions of animals, plants and other living beings. Always putting human needs first has had devastating consequences on landscapes, other species and the climate. What if we fundamentally shifted our perspective? More-than-human design begins by acknowledging our entanglement with the ecosystems that give us life. It challenges us to imagine a world in which human desires no longer take precedence over the rights and needs of living systems. This book brings together a new generation of designers, architects and artists exploring how to reorient their practices for the flourishing of other species. With contributions by renowned writers and thinkers, including Anna Tsing, Tim Ingold and Daisy Hildyard, it examines what it means to design with and for the living world.
Justin McGuirk is Director of Future Observatory. Tim Marlow is Director of the Design Museum.
