Designing Change is the second volume by DP Design (DPD), following Designing Spaces. While the first volume was an illustration of DPD's expertise in dealing with various types of spaces and uses, Designing Change is an insight into the design thought that guides and inspires the creative approach behind its latest body of works across a variety of building types and scale. A unique and engaging book, Designing Change is a visual discourse into the creative psyche of the interior-architects at DPD. It explores and illustrates how designing an interior space goes beyond a direct, strategic response to a building's intrinsic architectural form to examine and embody the evolving relationship between man and built environment. Recognizing that change is the only constant in an ever-progressing world, the book aims to simultaneously rethink design and inspire new paradigm in our design approach and perspective on space. Drawing on over 30 years of experience in the interior design, space planning and project management industry, DPD combines design concepts and short stories with imagery and illustrations to provide an in-depth look at the fundamentals and perceptions of interior spaces so as to relook the practice of interior design today. DPD is an integral part of the Singapore-based international architecture practice, DP Architects and its group of companies. Adept at handling multi-disciplinary large scale projects, DPD works hand in hand with DP Architects to achieve holistic design practices.

The editor has gathered together a body of writing in the emerging field of design studies. The contributors argue in different ways for a rethinking of design in the light of its cultural significance and its powerful position in today's society. The collection begins with a discussion of the various expressions of opposition to the modernists' purist approach toward design. Drawing on postmodernist theory and other critical strategies, the writers examine the relations among design, technology, and social organization to show how design has become a complex and multidisciplinary activity. The second section provides examples of new methods of interpreting and analysing design, ranging from rhetoric and semiotics to phenomenology, demonstrating how meaning is created visually. A final section related to design history shifts its emphasis to ideological frameworks such as capitalism and patriarchy that establish boundaries for the production and use of design.

Exploring how design can be used for good—prompting self-reflection, igniting the imagination, and affecting positive social change. Good design provides solutions to problems. It improves our buildings, medical equipment, clothing, and kitchen utensils, among other objects. But what if design could also improve societal problems by prompting positive ideological change? In this book, Bruce and Stephanie Tharp survey recent critical design practices and propose a new, more inclusive field of socially minded practice: discursive design. While many consider good design to be unobtrusive, intuitive, invisible, and undemanding intellectually, discursive design instead targets the intellect, prompting self-reflection and igniting the imagination. Discursive design (derived from “discourse”) expands the boundaries of how we can use design—how objects are, in effect, good(s) for thinking. Discursive Design invites us to see objects in a new light, to understand more than their basic form and utility. Beyond the different foci of critical design, speculative design, design fiction, interrogative design, and adversarial design, Bruce and Stephanie Tharp establish a more comprehensive, unifying vision as well as innovative methods. They not only offer social criticism but also explore how objects can, for example, be used by counselors in therapy sessions, by town councils to facilitate a pre-vote discussions, by activists seeking engagement, and by institutions and industry to better understand the values, beliefs, and attitudes of those whom they serve. Discursive design sparks new ways of thinking, and it is only through new thinking that our sociocultural futures can change.

Political parties are an essential ingredient in a modern democracy. They are also seen as the least trusted and most problematic institution in most democratic systems. While there have been attempts to strengthen parties through institutional design and capacity building, a new strategy has been to quarantine them from parts of parliament. Within the space of a few years the Philippines, Thailand and Indonesia implemented designs for parliamentary representation that proscribed the established political parties from a parliamentary chamber or part thereof. Using these three countries as case studies, this book traces the historical context for institutional designs, the intentions behind them and their implementation through at least one full parliamentary term. It investigates the conceptual architecture of the non-partisan designs, identifying corporatism as one (discredited) alternative and "championship" as another. While there is a yearning for exemplary people as representatives, the designers have struggled to find a successful means of having these champions elected to office. The book concludes that non-partisan chambers, based on the evidence to date, are not viable. This book is of interest to scholars of Southeast Asian Politics, Party Politics, Governance Institutions and Democracy.

DP Architects: 50 Years Since 1967 celebrates the half-century legacy of one of Asia's most prolific architecture and design practices, DP Architects. Established in 1967 with the mission to use architecture and design in order to improve the lives of those who encounter its projects, DPA's own growth runs parallel with Singapore's following its independence from Malaysia in 1965. Since then DPA has gone on to shape the cityscape of Singapore and beyond, with built work in 77 countries and an integrated, full-service design approach spanning engineering, healthcare, infrastructure, lighting, consulting and sustainable design. For this special trade edition, designed to coincide with the DP50 exhibition at the URA Centre, Singapore, in August, DP Architects: 50 Years Since 1967 offers a holistic insight into the firm's unique story and technique. It provides readers with a curated selection of some of DPA's most renowned projects, including The Dubai Mall, Esplanade - Theatres on the Bay, Sunray Headquarters, the Singapore University of Technology and Design with UNStudio, the Singapore Sports Hub and Resorts World Sentosa, as well as current projects, including the Sengkang Hospital. In addition to a generous feature of built projects, DP Architects: 50 Years Since 1967 contains exclusive interviews with DPA's principals, including founder Koh Seow Chuan. Throughout this celebratory publication, leading voices share their experiences and wisdom in spirit of collaborative design across a multitude of typologies, scales and locations. From early on, DPA earned a reputation for producing environmentally conscious buildings with a joie de vivre inherent to their user-oriented design values and colourful palette. A half-century later, with 17 offices operating worldwide and 1,300 employees currently in service, DPA remains true to its founding vision of maintaining an excellence in design that improves the quality of life for a public engaged with its plannig and architectural works.

The book addresses critically the question: "What is the societal impact of urban and regional planning?". It begins with a theoretical discussion and then analyses, through a series of case studies, the intentions, contents, struggles and consequences of urban and regional planning. It shows that plans and policies often defy the commonly perceived role of advancing equality, justice, development and amenity, by causing social problems, marginalisation and inequalities. The book looks at planning from a critical distance, without a priori belief in its necessity or usefulness. The 12 chapters, written by renowned international scholars, demonstrate the multiplicity of social and political struggles over the contested terrain of spatial policies. The book focuses on four key areas where the impact of planning is explored: the community power, gender relations, ethnic tensions, and social polarisation, while comparing three societies: Australia, Israel and England. Audience: This volume is mainly intended for faculty and students of academia, but also for urban professionals and policy-makers. The book is relevant to fields such as urban and regional planning, geography, political science, urban studies, urban sociology, urban anthropology, ethnic and gender relations.

As the power and sophistication of of 'big data' and predictive analytics has continued to expand, so too has policy and public concern about the use of algorithms in contemporary life. This is hardly surprising given our increasing reliance on algorithms in daily life, touching policy sectors from healthcare, transport, finance, consumer retail, manufacturing education, and employment through to public service provision and the operation of the criminal justice system. This has prompted concerns about the need and importance of holding algorithmic power to account, yet it is far from clear that existing legal and other oversight mechanisms are up to the task. This collection of essays, edited by two leading regulatory governance scholars, offers a critical exploration of 'algorithmic regulation', understood both as a means for co-ordinating and regulating social action and decision-making, as well as the need for institutional mechanisms through which the power of algorithms and algorithmic systems might themselves be regulated. It offers a unique perspective that is likely to become a significant reference point for the ever-growing debates about the power of algorithms in daily life in the worlds of research, policy and practice. The range of contributors are drawn from a broad range of disciplinary perspectives including law, public administration, applied philosophy, data science and artificial intelligence. Taken together, they highlight the rise of algorithmic power, the potential benefits and risks associated with this power, the way in which Sheila Jasanoff's long-standing claim that 'technology is politics' has been thrown into sharp relief by the speed and scale at which algorithmic systems are proliferating, and the urgent need for wider public debate and engagement of their underlying values and value trade-offs, the way in which they affect individual and collective decision-making and action, and effective and legitimate mechanisms by and through which algorithmic power is held to account.
