About Prompt: Socially Engaging Objects And Environments
Product Description An environment or object, in many ways, is a prompt, which has the duality of being both a thing and an action that incites and inspires. -Tamie Glass in the Introduction of Prompt Fueled by an increasingly interconnected world, the desire for engaging experiences plays a more critical role in the built environment than ever before, particularly at the scale of the interior. Constructed spaces—in their entirety or through the employment of a single product or piece of furniture—can promote social interactions, encourage changes in behavior, shape perceptions of use, or challenge accepted cultural norms. As a thought starter for designers, Prompt by Tamie Glass delves into the significance and importance of the built environments in which individuals occupy for approximately 90% of their time. How does a space’s design help shape people’s behaviors and emotions? How does a space connect to individuals and in turn connect individuals to each other? Throughout her book, Glass offers a curated selection of high- and low-tech examples that express timely and timeless concepts. Ranging from a light switch to art installations and fully realized buildings, the projects illuminate psychosocial principles and specific strategies for harnessing the power of design to impact the human experience. About the Author Tamie Glass is an undergraduate and graduate course professor at the University of Texas at Austin in the School of Architecture. With over 15 years of experience in interior design and concept development at Glass & Dangel, American Society of Interior Designers, and more, Glass brings that knowledge not only to the classroom, but also to her new book: Prompt.
