| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Design and Spirituality explores the philosophical backdrop of our present circumstances and its impact on design. It delves into how modernity and our limited ideas of progress have played a role in the current crisis of values. The book advocates for a return to self-transcendent priorities, as well as a focus on moderation and sufficiency. Topics discussed include the intersection of material culture and spiritual teachings, sustainability from a spiritual standpoint, traditional and indigenous wisdom, the relationship between technology and spirituality, the concept of meaningful design, and the deeper symbolic significance that certain objects can hold. |
