Design and Othered Bodies

Leonardo da Vinci’s famous drawing of the Vitruvian Man, which marks the emergence of the Renaissance, of humanism, and of design as a profession, shows a healthy white male body enmeshed in the square and circle of universal geometry. This course inquires about the bodies that are not shown in this drawing, including children and the elderly, women, racialized people, and disabled people, and how design can accommodate the needs of these other bodies.
