Assembling Tomorrow
Scott Doorley and Carissa Carter
Learn how to use the readily accessible tools of design to both mend the mistakes of our past and shape our future for the better.
Book Overview
Assembling Tomorrow explores how to use readily accessible tools of design to both mend the mistakes of our past and shape our future for the better. It explores the intangibles, the mysterious forces that contribute to the off-kilter feelings of today, and follows up with actionables to help you alter your perspective and find opportunities in these turbulent times. Mixed throughout are histories of the future, short pieces of speculative fiction that illustrate how things go haywire and what might be in store if we don’t set them straight.
