a leading international design journal published in Germany. The issue examines the notion of boundaries from multiple perspectives – physical, cultural, technological, and ethical – through essays, research-based projects, and critical design case studies.
The publication brings together designers, researchers, and theorists working across disciplines such as industrial design, material research, digital technologies, and speculative design. It reflects on how design operates within, challenges, and redefines boundaries in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
The issue includes contributions by Eran Lederman alongside an international group of designers and researchers, situating applied design research within broader discussions on responsibility, innovation, and the role of design in contemporary society.
