Viewpoint Design Magazine No.36
While many are exalting the value of crunching vast numbers to make smarter decisions more quickly, some are claiming that lack of trust and growing concern over privacy mean that data is ‘dead’. In this issue of Viewpoint we aim to critically analyse the opportunities and pitfalls of big data, showing how and where data is genuinely being used effectively, and learning from those studios and companies that are using data as knowledge and placing it at the centre of the design process.
As well as unpacking big data as The Big Idea of this issue, we deliver all the usual features. Within Undercurrents: Lifestyle we report on emerging behavioural and attitudinal lifestyle trends that are shaping the design world, while Undercurrents: Design provides a visual exploration of emerging design movements across the lifestyle industries and the key emerging directions influencing colour, pattern and graphics. Turn to the Innovation section to learn about the leading material and technological innovations shaping the future, while in The Talent we identify the idea-makers of tomorrow, providing a directory of names that you need to know.
