Description
What is the role of craftsmanship in the post-industrial age? Can it hold up as an economically viable model in the face of increasing digitalisation in all areas of life?
The editors portray selected designing crafters with very different educational backgrounds in a generational dialogue. They show how these crafters join design work, technology, and manufacturing with cleverly implemented international experience to develop self-determined and economically successful small-scale business models.
Photographs of the resulting products and the workshops they are made in are complemented with interviews revealing the personal knowledge of the crafters. These interviews provide the reader with impressive insights into contemporary craftsmanship, establishing it as an approach unique to the 21st century.
Craft-Based Design offers a valuable exploration of the intersection between traditional skills and modern innovation, charting a path for craftsmanship in a rapidly changing world.
