Today, designers, researchers, and scholars must responsibly engage the entangled networks and delineated systems far beyond boundaries of typical design practice to engage in thoughtful critique of the past and consider counter-imaginations of the future. Our discussion of the unseen begins first with an understanding of the power of sight. A look back at the technologies of control implicated in documenting the world reveals the closely intertwined evolution of imperial occupation and technological progress. Constructing Invisibility continues the exchanges initiated during the first symposium and builds upon the diversity of knowledge shared. The late French philosopher Bruno Latour reminds us that “politics has always been oriented toward objects, stakes, situations, material entities, bodies, landscapes, places. This is in effect the decisive discovery of political ecology: it is an object-oriented politics. Change the territories and you will also change the attitudes.” This issue uses these economies, landscapes, and places, including the boundless corporations and destructive climate realities, to better see the world. Further, the collection of essays seeks to understand how the construction of such sight impacts civilian occupation in the remaining world. Illuminating stories and places has become the aim of this volume, and shedding light on distant territories has become confounded by extremity, complexity, disparity, and secrecy.

Designing for Dignity: Elements of Practice reflects the current and best thoughts on Dignified Design. The book offers tangible guidance for how the built environment can promote health and wellbeing and how design professionals can create atmospheres of dignity and hope.
Transdisciplinary evidence, including interviews with over 3,000 people over the last decade, informs the premise of the book—acknowledging that nothing we design is neutral, the places we inhabit shape our ideas about who we are and what we deserve, and the built environment has the potential to promote safety, comfort, community, and control for all end users. The 22 elements of Dignified Design illustrate a range of potential spatial responses with infinite applications, all of which underscore that Dignified Design requires intention, iteration, and evaluation to achieve meaningful impact. Designing for Dignity: Elements of Practice centers health, wholeness, and flourishing—stipulating a standard of DIGNITY in housing, shelters, and all environments.
