gain more space and support the future activities of projective stamp like design. In<br />

this sense, the authors seek to explain why these three words are so important and<br />

how they influence contemporary design.<br />

Gui Bonsiepe argues that the current crisis permits and requires the revision of the<br />

framework of different design trends. A rough taxonomy distinguishes between nine<br />

design trends (industrial): socially responsible design, sustainable design, life-style<br />

design, copyright design, art design, transdisciplinary design, (neo)-craftsmanship<br />

design, strategy design, research design and experimental design. Evaluates, at last,<br />

which of these approaches are the most promising to adequately respond to the<br />

current crisis of the design.<br />

Lucy Niemeyer uses the text to draw a picture of Brazil from the end of World<br />

War II to the present, with the changing profile of the country, in terms of social,<br />

political, cultural and technological. Are appointed as the establishment of the design<br />

profession and its expression in the country. At the end, the text shows how to change<br />

the world stage in recent decades has determined new ways of design and designers<br />

convened for the assumption of the role of social transformers.<br />

Maria Cecília Loschiavo dos Santos develops her narrative from a reflection on<br />

the challenges of teaching and research design in the contemporary world and its<br />

relations with the theme of humanism. For this, we consider the following topics:<br />

what is the meaning of thinking humanism and its relations with the design in the<br />

contemporary world? Humanism and Design in the Brazilian context: specific historical<br />

and cultural heritages. The feminine look for the design and humanist legacy of Gilda<br />

de Mello e Souza and Lina Bo Bardi.<br />

As seen throughout this manuscript presented here, the humanities and social<br />

sciences in relation to the crossing design and its diversity can be seen as conductive<br />

and activating the unique processes of design and project generated in the encounter<br />

of various disciplines in plan of teaching, research and the project itself, but also as<br />

carriers of essential approaches, cognitive models and tools for analysis and metaproject-model<br />

viewpoints under thematic project with high social and cultural content.<br />

Have a nice reading!<br />
