Design/Repair: Place, Practice & Community

Kalantidou, Eleni; Keulemans, Guy; Mellick Lopes, Abby; Rubenis, Niklavs; Gill, Alison

This collection of essays sheds light on repair as a disposition to material culture and a practice rooted in diverse sociocultural experiences. It provides an in-depth exploration of how repair manifests itself through the different lenses of governance, grassroots activism, transformative design and community-led initiatives. Most importantly, the chapters demonstrate how place-based approaches can reveal blueprints for social impact in circumstances of growing environmental and social precariousness.
