内容説明
Of the world's total population of 6.5 billion, nearly 5.8 billion people, or 90%, have little or no access to most of the products and services many of us take for granted; in fact, nearly half do not have regular access to food, clean water, or shelter. "Design for the Other 90%" explores more than 30 projects which reflect the growing movement among designers, engineers, students and professors, architects, and social entrepreneurs to design low-cost solutions for this other 90%. Through partnerships both local and global, individuals and organizations around the United States and throughout the world are inventing unique ways to provide better access to food, water, shelter, health, education and energy to those who most need them. Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Smithsonian's Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, "Design for the Other 90%" contains more than a dozen essays by leading experts in the field, accompanied by 200 full-color illustrations, to highlight a wide variety of design innovations that address the basic challenges of survival and progress faced by the world's poor and marginalized.

東京デザイナーズウィークとかに行くと、「何でみんな椅子ばっかりデザインするんだろう？」
と思うことがあります。デザインが必要とされる場面はもっと多様なのに。
この本は、そういうまだデザインされていない領域について沢山書かれています。
飲み水を得るためのデザインとか、なんて原始的で素敵なプロジェクトなんだろう。
その作業がデザインと言われようが、エンジニアリングと呼ばれようが、どっちでもいいじゃないか！

雄弁な写真がたくさんおさめられています。アフリカの荒れ地で水を運ぶ道具をデザインすることが持つ意味を考えるだけで、この本に触れた意味があると感じます。日本語版と比較すると原著のほうが少し大判で、本自体も「デザイン」されています。

nice brief review of interesting design
2008/2/17
形式:ペーパーバック
"Design for the Other 90%" was published for the exhibition of the same name at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum at the Smithsonian. More like a review of an exhibition than a definitive text, the book is a nice brief review of some very interesting designs that are useful all over our planet. The book does not seem to be intended to teach you how to build, but rather to inspire you to think about building differently.
The book contains a collection of inventions - most of them quite simple. Examples are a "pot-in-pot" cooler which uses evaporative cooling to keep food from spoiling, a portable water filter for drinking water, a communal solar-powered kitchen, a gravity-powered drip irrigation system, and small-scale photovoltaic lighting. There are many more interesting ideas within these pages.
You won't learn the details of construction from this book, but you will be stimulated to think more broadly about designs that are useful for the majority of humans on our planet.

Thinking out of the box
2009/4/4
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Necessity is indeed the mother of invention. While I did not see the original exhibit that inspired the publication of this book by the Copper-Hewitt, the book stands well by itself. The fact that we take so many things for granted makes this book a revelation. I bought 5 copies to give away to architect and engineer friends. I think it will prove revelatory and may inspire them to return their thinking to the most elementary basics of design; elegant and highly practical solutions that work for all of us, not just the needy 90%.

ALL design and international development students should read this book!
2011/4/24
形式:ペーパーバック
This amazing book is deceptively simple with breakthroughs on 2 levels:
First, it focuses on designs that address the basic cause of world poverty: INADEQUATE INCOME! Most of the designs featured help the users to generate dramatically higher income. For example, a hand operated drip irrigation system can allow a farmer to create a 10 fold increase in income! This is THE key to sustainable international development. Secondly, the designers focus on the developing world as an economic market, NOT a charitable cause. It's all about designing the right product (to meet the real needs of a local market) at the right cost (ideally with a VERY quick payback,allowing the buyers to increase their income) for a huge market. This is another key to a sustainable international development model. Until we see the developing world as a viable economic force, we will continue to pour in aid that has no leverage.
Buy this book to see some innovative product designs, but even more importantly to gain insights into the design THINKING behind successful products that have a truly positive effect on the lives of those in the developing world.
