La+ Creature - Paperback

by Tatum Hands (Editor), Richard Weller (Editor)

Issue 14 of LA+ Journal brings you the results of the LA+ CREATURE international design ideas competition, which explored how we can use design to achieve a more symbiotic existence with other creatures. The competition brief asked entrants to choose a nonhuman client and design something--a place, a structure, a product, a process, a system--to improve its life and increase human-nonhuman empathy.

As well as showcasing the award-winning designs and a comprehensive Salon des Refusés, LA+ CREATURE features an essay by Lori Gruen (author of Critical Terms for Animal Studies) and interviews with jurors Timothy Morton, Kate Orff, Jennifer Wolch, Andrew Grant, Chris Reed, and Farre Nixon.
