What does the tag cloud reveal about design and British society?

Jump to Comments

Our friend, and designer of beautiful books, Miko McGinty, has recently led Turnstone to the great UK Royal Society of Arts (RSA) Design and Society blog. It’s a treasure trove for those of us in Brooklyn needing a regular whiff of that very British sense of creativity-with-responsibility. We’ll see if we can catch up with its author while we’re in London. Meantime, we’ve noted that after “Alice Rawsthorn”, the tag “Consumer” is one of the most prominent in the cloud. Design for good? Aesthetics, ethics…and a flexible friend, your credit card. Eek.
