Description:
- BIRD, the "Board of International Research in Design", is a forum for publications on insightful design research.
- BIRD is convinced that highly qualified design research is relevant: both in regards to design in its entire complexity as well as in regards to social, cultural, economic and scientific developments in our societies.
- BIRD publishes its works with Birkhäuser. Birkhäuser has not only made a name for itself in the fields of architecture and design, but also offers an excellent distribution network due to its place within the De Gruyter Publishing Group.
- BIRD proposes projects and texts from design research that merit publication and supervises their publication.
- BIRD is also constantly on the lookout for excellent presentations of significant design research.
Review Quotes: "[...] eine Theoriearbeit Recks, die in einem geradezu klassisch aufklärerischen Sinne - ohne hinter deren kritische Reflexion zurückzufallen - für ein Engagement in unserer sehr konkreten Welt steht." (Norbert M. Schmitz in MEDIENwissenschaft)
