Reviews
Moving Objects offers an innovative framework for measuring value in design. Taylor touts examples that recall our humanity and heighten our awareness of everyday objects we take for granted ... If our emotions project onto our surroundings and into our work as Taylor suggests, Moving Objects provides a robust roadmap for using those emotions to shape - and view - our world more intentional. * Design and Culture *
Moving Objects is a unique book. The study uses unexpected insights and connects previously separate disciplines and different types of design. Damon Taylor shows himself to be a brilliant researcher who enriches the design world with a great knowledge of design history, an original analysis of how design works and also thinks along with us about the future possibilities in design. -- Timo de Rijk, Director of the Design Museum Den Bosch, Netherlands
