The crucial importance of getting one's message across in today's media-driven society has prompted a surge of developments in the area of installation design. This book offers a critical update on the theme, and testifies to the acutely experimental approach adopted for installation projects, which involve interweaving input from a variety of different disciplines to produce a single focused design. The very temporary nature of installations gives a strong communication edge to all design features — be it a cultural message, for a product, or for entertainment — fostering a lively concentration of the various aspects of interior design.
