This book takes the position that we currently occupy a collective field of enormous productivity, which is negatively impacting our earthly ecosystems at scale.
The author envisages a near future, when we have lost interest, not only in consumerism but in producing things as we do in the current paradigm.
This is an open invitation to join the author in applying this vision, to the future of our designed and built world in newly imagined ways.
“The deep thinking, layered with lived experience and personal anecdotes give this book a resonance that make it an inspirational read for any creative practitioner wondering about their place in the current environmental and cultural climate.”
Journalist and author, Heidi Dokulil
