Future Design [Paperback]

Future Design looks at the very cutting edge of technology and its impact on everyday life, from radical projections for shaping the planet over the next thousand years to changes taking place right on the end of your street tomorrow. Examining real objects including a DNA sequencer, the Facebook drone, a 3D printer that works in space, and UC Berkeleys Laundry Robot, this book explores the fears, hopes, and dreams embedded in each, the designers motivated to create them, and the consumers using or avoiding them.
