Future Observatory Journal: New Narratives for Design, Ecology and a Future

By Justin McGuirk

Considering new frameworks for building a sustainable future

If ever there was a time to consider alternative ways of building a future, it is now. Future Observatory Journal: New Narratives for Design, Ecology and a Future brings together the first three online issues of Future Observatory Journal into a single, unified volume. Conceived by Future Observatory, a research platform based at London's Design Museum, this edition weaves the journal's founding themes--Bioregioning, More than Human and In Abundance--into a cohesive and richly layered publication. The book features writing and visual propositions by leading thinkers, practitioners and researchers, drawing these strands into an investigation of design's role in shaping the green transition. Meticulously designed and crafted by Studio Airport, the publication transforms the journal's early explorations into a tactile experience that reflects the forward-looking spirit of Future Observatory.
