Co dziś jest prawdziwym luksusem: posiadanie pewnych rzeczy czy raczej rezygnacja z nich? Dlaczego dajemy się wciągać w obłędny trans konsumpcji?
Dizajn jest wszędzie! Drogi rodzicu, drogi dzieciaku, czy myśleliście o tym, jak powstały rzeczy, które mamy wokół siebie? Kto zdecydował, jak mają działać, z czego mają być zrobione i jak mają wyglądać? Kto je zaprojektował? Bo właśnie na tym polega projektowanie, czyli dizajn. A zaprojektowane jest naprawdę wszystko: i rzeczy bardzo małe, jak spinacz do papieru, i te bardzo duże, jak samolot; i te zwyczajne, jak wiadro, i eleganckie jak perfumy; i rzeczy do ubrania, jak trampki, i do jedzenia, jak cukierki.
Cyfrowy zapis konstrukcji mebli to najbardziej współczesny sposób dokumentowania prac projektowych. Rozwija kreatywność podczas kształtowania formy przedmiotu, umożliwia uzyskanie oczekiwanej funkcjonalności i technologiczności oraz zapewnia łatwość integracji z systemami wspomagającymi wytwarzanie i zarządzanie produkcją. W ślad za wydanymi już książkami prof. J. Smardzewskiego, tj. „Komputerowo zintegrowanym wytwarzaniem mebli” oraz „Projektowaniem mebli”, przekazujemy Czytelnikom nową pozycję tego Autora traktującą o metodach komputerowego zapisu konstrukcji mebli w dedykowanym dla meblarstwa środowisku CAD TopSolid®.

Featuring 50 cutting-edge projects from around the world, this international survey of workplace design is the ultimate resource for anyone creating the workplace of today or tomorrow. Abundantly illustrated with plans and photographs throughout, the book is divided into three colour-coded sections. Part 1 showcases low-cost workplaces created for small companies. Part 2 is a collection of medium-sized projects, all of which place a strong emphasis on environmental sensitivity and getting the most from a restricted budget. Part 3 is a selection of offices designed for large companies; here too the aim is to be as eco-friendly as possible, as well as to provide spaces that promote productivity, creativity and enhanced interaction between employees.
Necessity is the mother of invention, and the global necessity of facing the challenges of Climate Change has unleashed the inventive powers of architects around the world, many of whom are tackling the problem in original and highly creative ways.

New Green Homes presents the latest innovations in sustainable architecture and design. Projects include "green" houses, apartments, lofts, and cabins, and explore various aspects of environmentally-friendly design from its ecological and economical benefits to the factors that need to be considered when choosing materials, such as the amount of energy that went into manufacturing the product; its sustainability; the life-expectancy of its materials; and the question of if the materials used can be recycled or safely disposed of if they break down over time. Specific topics covered include climate regulation, drainage systems, and regional planning.
