Report on Withholding Good Design

2004-05

Archeworks completed the final year of a three year project that investigated the withholding of good design from certain segments of society. The project, funded by the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in Fine Arts, explored the areas in which design was withheld. During the three year study, Archeworks students held focus groups, symposiums and did research that resulted in the book Design Denied: The Dynamics of Withholding Good Design and its Ethical Implications and a curricula for design schools surrounding the topic. The book was published by Archeworks and released in May 2005

PROJECT UPDATE:
Design Denied was launched as a course in 2006 at The School of The Art Institute in Chicago. More Info
