Top runners at the cutting edge of their fields, including designers, novelists, ecological psychologists, anthropologists, visual space directors, and psychiatrists vividly depicts the knowledge that emerges from "DESIGN x SCIENCE," which switches the world toward the beauty by launching the sensory organs of people's awareness and interest in the quality of daily life and the environmental world.
