Abstract:
A Proposal From Esad, The Ecole Superieure D’art Et De Design De Reims
In wealthy countries, the 21st century is marked by the economic supremacy of the service sector, which generates immaterial products. Objects have become data carriers, meant to quench the consumer’s thirst for sensation. Computers are transforming society as radically as the steam engine did over 150 years ago. Production, distribution and consumption have increased from a rhythm of jazz or rock to one of techno. Long abandoned by the Bauhaus, design has broken free from Raymond Loewy and is trying to rebuild itself somewhere between cultural and stock values.
