About This Book

Situating Design in Alberta makes the case that design has the potential to drive economic growth, improve quality of life, and promote sustainability in the province and across the country. Contributors bring both scholarly and practical perspectives and come from diverse disciplines, including architecture, interior design, industrial design, and visual communications. The collection is organized around four main topics—history, education, economics, and sustainability—and touches on a variety of issues. This stimulating book has much to offer to other regions and their design communities, companies, and institutions.
