A Design Perspective

¨We are lacking a discipline, perhaps an ´objectology´, or an ´ object ethology ´, which allows us to analyse and systematise objects and to formulate the rules and codes of their behaviour....a discipline which recovers and updates the interrupted discourse of material culture, in crisis since the world of objects was taken over by the world of products and the world of consumption¨ Susani, 1992, 42



How can the language of design be questioned?
How can design be used as a commentary?
How can design function as artistic speculation?
How can designers reclaim their position in the critical debate about objects using their own language as a playful weapon to reclaim it?
