Service Design Book Club: Ruined by Design
Details
"The world is working exactly as designed. And it’s not working very well. Which means we need to do a better job of designing it. Design is a craft with an amazing amount of power."
Is our job as designers to just fix things gone broke, or can we create impact further upstream? Come chat with us this month as we focus on...the power and politics of design. We'll read from one book--"Ruined by Design" by Mike Monteiro. (Special thanks to Yookyung for suggesting this book!)
*** Space is limited so if you can't attend, please make sure to cancel so someone else can go.***

Enter the lot from Jefferson and you can park in the visitor parking on the south side of the building after hours (free) or in the large lot behind the building on Corbett St (paid).
