Design Details is the 2014-2015 interdisciplinary lecture series of The Design School at Arizona State University. The series invites designers and scholars from Architecture, Industrial Design, Interior Design, Landscape Architecture, Urban Design, and Visual Communication Design to lecture on the idea and importance of "the detail" and "detailing" in their discipline. From the scale of the object to the city, the series will look closely at the relationship of the part to the whole and the significance of the particularities in design that are often overlooked.
