About the Book

This book takes a sweeping view of the ways we build things, beginning at the scale of products and interiors, to that of regions and global systems. In doing so, it answers questions on how we effect and are affected by our environment and explores how components of what we make-from products, buildings, and cities-are interrelated, and why designers and planners must consider these connections.
