Defuturing: A New Design Philosophy by Tony Fry challenges conventional design thinking. This insightful book introduces the groundbreaking concept of “defuturing,” a paradigm shift away from the relentless pursuit of progress and innovation for its own sake.

Instead, Fry advocates for a more sustainable and human-centered approach to design. He meticulously examines the profound impact of technology on our lives and the environment, urging designers and architects to consider the long-term consequences of their creations. The book offers practical guidance and real-world examples to illustrate the principles of defuturing in action.

Through compelling case studies, Defuturing provides a framework for creating designs that prioritize longevity, resource efficiency, and social responsibility. This is not simply a critique of existing design practices; it’s a constructive proposal for a more ethical and environmentally conscious future. Written by a leading authority in the field, this book is a must-read for anyone involved in design, architecture, or interested in sustainable development.
