How Can Design Help?
One of my current projects is creating a book that contrasts middle-class American living with third-world life. There is a certain power in seeing two images side by side. An image of our dinner vs. their dinner. Our shoes vs. their shoes. And on and on.
During my research I came across this site that lists the 15 most toxic places to live. Pretty sad to see.
My question is this. Design has been used VERY effectively to help promote consumerism and capitalism. I see the tide changing. How can design be used to effectively help and promote the needs of the third world and other travesties?
