Looks good feels good is good

Social design encompasses all design movements that support a sustainable lifestyle and present alternatives for current social and economic systems. This book clarifies the concept of social design in an accessible, interdisciplinary and visually attractive way. It therefore acts as a reference book for professionals and students, but also as a catalyst for a creative movement and a mentality with enormous potential and unprecedented impact. Anne van der Zwaag (1978) studied Contemporary Art at the University of Utrecht, makes publications in the fields of art, fashion, design and architecture, and works as a freelance curator, publicist and researcher for various cultural institutes.
