This is the third in a series of four books developed within the Distributed Design Platform, co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the European Union. Distributed Design allows creatives, designers, makers and innovators to participate in the creation of a new model of production and consumption, in which “bits travel globally, while atoms stay locally”.

This book collects observations and reflections from the Distributed Design Platform and extended community. It aims to give shape to the experiences of designers and makers across Europe and throughout the globe during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some articles are personal reflections, written by multiple authors, whereas other articles are more academic. This book was written in a distributed manner during the pandemic, embodying the concepts and discussing the societal and sociological practice of Distributed Design.
