Today, practically everything is designed: the climate, processes, refugee camps. But when everything is designed, it is high time to stop judging design solely on aesthetic criteria.

If this happens in such a way that options for action are reduced, we are dealing with subjugation.\u003cbr\u003eIn his manifesto\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe World as Project.
