Projektowanie krajobrazu pracy. Między praktyczną a krytyczną antropologią projektowania
Journal Title: Kultura Popularna - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 52
Abstract
The article attempts to answer the question concerning the role anthropological reflection plays and should play in designing the work environment, or, more broadly – the workplace landscape. Drawing on Tim Ingold’s distinction between design anthropology and design ethnography, I offer an analysis of contemporary workplace landscapes and the practices of their design based on my own research experience. In doing so, I focus on two principal, i.e. “practical” and “critical”, elements of involvement of anthropology in these processes. The first case study concerns the practices of teleworkers and the question of reconciling their professional and private lives in the limited space of their homes in general, and dividing the space of home into the sphere of working and private life in particular. The second study (in which I am involved as an independent consultant working on a team designing the working style of a company) is concerned with the design of working space in a new building planned as a showcase of the firm called X.<br/><br/>
