"The Power of Design" provides a compact introduction to the current eleven UNESCO Cities of Design. Each individual city is briefly portrayed with important statistical information and detailed facts relating to its development of design. The highly varied approaches of the individual cities in their use of design as an engine for current and future development are then described in more detail through concrete and well illustrated examples. In addition, there are interviews with designers, activists, organizers and critical observers, which the author conducted either during his travels or through extensive correspondence. The result is a richly illustrated and handy book which combines hard facts with personal impressions and points of view.

As different as they are, Beijing, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Graz, Kobe, Montreal, Nagoya, Saint-Etienne, Seoul, Shanghai and Shenzhen have something in common: they have all been distinguished by UNESCO with title City of Design . The Power of Design can be seen as a compact introduction to the current eleven UNESCO Cities of Design. The varied approaches of the individual cities in their use of design as an engine for current and future development are described in detail through concrete examples. Interviews with designers, activists, organizers and critical observers, which the author completed during his travels to all of the cities, give this publication a special quality. The Power of Design shows how differently and diversely the term design is interpreted and used across the continents. The result is a highly varied and richly illustrated book which combines so-called hard facts with personal impressions and subjective points of view.
