#milanuncut

The Blogazine supports #milanuncut.

The Twitter hashtag initiative was begun by a group of design journalists to debate serious issues in design that generally don’t grab headlines. Environmental and social issues. Education issues. Product life, aesthetics, materials and even issues related to the design system itself. And on the eve of the world’s most important design event – which just happens to be the crown jewel of our city – we feel that design is in need of a real shakeup. Questions raised on #milanuncut will serve to stimulate real discourse and drive design towards better solutions and away from a tool for the far-too-market oriented nature of pretty trinkets and shiny brand names.

fuesproject and other notables have already been quite active in the discussion, and we invite our readers to join in. London design practice Zerofree designed the #milanuncut logo.
