商品描述

A future for the design practices that works within the living and intelligent design of Earth.

On a spring afternoon in Cambridge, Massachusetts, standing against the concrete and glass backdrop of the Harvard University Graduate School of Design's Gund Hall, Karenna Gore addressed a graduating class of future architects, landscape architects, design engineers, and urban planners and designers. Gore, a professor of earth ethics whose work hovers around the intersection of values, faith, and ecology, could seem an unexpected fit as the messenger of parting wisdom to a group of designers. But she begins her speech by foregrounding the shared task of facing a climate crisis that continues to threaten life and systems on Earth in new and increasingly erratic ways, and encourages a future for design that lies in learning from the natural world. Calling on figures as varied as theologian Thomas Berry to landscape architect Kate Orff, Gore suggests this multidisciplinary Earth-centered approach could not only be benefical to design thinking but integral to it. "It is not Earth that needs fixing," she said. "It is us."

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一個適應地球生命與智慧設計的設計實踐未來。

在馬薩諸塞州劍橋的一個春季午後,站在哈佛大學設計研究所的Gund Hall混凝土與玻璃背景下,Karenna Gore對一群未來的建築師、景觀建築師、設計工程師以及城市規劃與設計師的畢業班發表了演講。Gore是一位地球倫理學教授,她的工作圍繞著價值觀、信仰與生態的交集,似乎不太符合作為設計師們的告別智慧傳遞者的角色。但她在演講開始時強調了共同面對氣候危機的任務,這場危機以新的且日益不穩定的方式威脅著地球上的生命與系統,並鼓勵設計的未來應該從自然界中學習。Gore提到從神學家Thomas Berry到景觀建築師Kate Orff等各種人物,建議這種多學科的以地球為中心的方法不僅對設計思維有益,還是其不可或缺的一部分。她說:「需要修復的不是地球,而是我們自己。」
