Designing Change (Hardcover)

Hardcover. 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. Recognising that change is the only constant in an ever-progressing world, the book aims to simultaneously rethink design and inspire a 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 rethink 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. With a deep concern for the built environment, DP Design (DPD) seeks to create spaces - spaces that are memorable, relevant and sustainable, and has delivered a sterling international body of works. The design firm takes a holistic approach to interior spaces, a direct response to a building's intrinsic architectural and formal relationships, endeavouring to preserve and enhance the natural behaviour of a building. In doing so, DPD creates environments that seamlessly integrate people, architecture, technology and the ultimate purpose of the space.
