Trust Design: How Design Can Increase Our Trust. Or Damage It.

By Scott Burnham

Trust has become a critical issue in our society. Something as simple as eating or shopping for food becomes an exercise in trust as we weigh organic claims against reports of genetically modified foods and contamination. How can trust be strengthened through the objects, services, and spaces we use? What are the ingredients of trust? Does trust have a color? A look? A feel? Can you design trust? Can you trust design? For a topic of such vast importance in our daily lives, little attention is paid to the real-world, tactile qualities of trust. Trust Design shows how trust can be communicated between the design of the object, system, or space, and the audience or end-user. Featuring examples of products, systems, services, interfaces, and spaces designed with trust in mind, Trust Design brings an often intangible concept into the physical world.
