Willy Guhls Entwurfspraxis als angewandte Designforschung
Willy Guhl (1915-2004), einer der wichtigsten Schweizer Designer der Nachkriegszeit, gilt als Pionier des modernen, neofunktionalistischen Industriedesigns. Sein Eternit- Strandstuhl oder der Blumenkasten aus demselben Material sind Ikonen der Schweizer Designgeschichte.
Basierend auf Guhls nahezu vollständig erhaltenem, aber noch unerschlossenem und unbearbeitetem Nachlass rekonstruiert Katrin Stowasser in diesem Buch seine besondere Arbeitsweise. Die damit einhergehende gestalterische Haltung wird anhand ausgewählter Beispiele aus Guhls Gesamtwerk veranschaulicht.

Not at Your Service. Manifestos for Design | Björn Franke, Hansuli Matter (eds.) [E-Book PDF]
Not at Your Service: Manifestos for Design brings together the broad spectrum of beliefs, subjects and practices of designers at Zurich University of the Arts. It offers different approaches and insights on the present-day role and impact of design. It is not conceived as a finished project, but as a fluid document of its time. Collaborative design, interaction within complex systems, attention economics, the ecological shift, visual literacy, gender-neutral design, «quick and dirty» design ethnography, social responsibility, the value of ugliness, death futures, immersive technologies, identity and crises, design as a transformative discipline – all of these topics are presented for debate with passion, conviction and professional expertise.
