Civic Ecology as a Design Space

What is innovative in design today? What urgent issues is the discipline tackling? For this special feature in Domus Magazine, Valentina Croci talks with Paola Antonelli, Aric Chen and John Thackara. Paola muses on the disturbed relation between us and nature, the subject of her (then) forthcoming show at the Triennale di Milano. From his observatory in Hong Kong, Aric Chen speculates on strategies and behaviours that can be determined by design. John Thackara identifies civic ecology as a space filled with opportunities for micro-actions by design.
