{"title":"Harmonizing Bilingual Layouts: A Proposal of Latin–Arabic Typographic Classifications","authors":"Randa Abdel Baki","doi":"10.1080/17547075.2023.2232603","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/17547075.2023.2232603","url":null,"abstract":"AbstractUnder the influence of globalization and multinational communication, the English language has become the steering script utilized in visual design. It has displaced other local languages and scripts and imposed a monolingual design outcome. This affected the design process and the end-product both globally and locally, fueling the loss of local design culture and dismissing the local script in countries where English is not the primary language of communication. This paper highlights the importance of bilingual Latin-Arabic typographic layouts, in order to preserve the Arabic script, the local language and culture alongside the mainstream. It aims to serve as an initial model for other multi scripts approaches. It stages the process and the challenges of designing bilingual systems. The focus is on applying suitable and harmonious bilingual Latin-Arabic typographic schemes to maintain the local script while equally and harmoniously coexisting with the multinational English counterpart. This proposal presents multiple bilingual layout classifications to equip designers in better understanding duality and creating harmonious bilingual compositions while preserving the local script.Keywords: bilingual Latin-Arabic typographic layoutscultural homogenizationlocal scriptbilingual layout classificationtypography Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationNotes on contributorsRanda Abdel BakiRanda Abdel Baki is a scholar, design educator, and designer residing in Beirut, Lebanon.

Scholarship has largely assumed that designers are complicit in manipulating the user and undermining their privacy. In this paper, we investigate privacy dark patterns and report on interviews conducted with UX practitioners, describing three findings: (1) designers feel motivated to act ethically due to their ‘moral compasses’; (2) designers are restricted in their ability to act ethically due to commercial pressures and a limited purview of the project; (3) designers’ understanding of the ethics of their practice do not currently match determinations made by international privacy and design scholars and demonstrate a limited understanding of how user behavior can be shaped that, in turn, obfuscates beneficial privacy outcomes for users. We conclude by outlining the benefits of independent regulation and progressive ethics education in UX.","PeriodicalId":44307,"journal":{"name":"Design and Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42487146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many hydroelectric dams were erected in the 700-mile watershed. The energy fueled the manufacture of bombers, missiles, and the atomic bomb. The Authority had unprecedentedly broad purview, from constructing fertilizer factories, coal-fired plants, and nuclear facilities to becoming involved in education and public health. The Authority model crafted a developmental reasoning for militarized involvement across the Earth. The dams were called a pathway to liberal democracy, yet environmental devastation, racism, and Indigenous displacement were inherent, as documented by the NAACP, and the flooding of Indigenous cities. MoMA’s 1941 exhibit named the settler-colonial infrastructure an art object. The dam is a hydraulic monument to coloniality. Art institutions, engineers, and designers are implicated. As these containers decay, we must begin to see once-modern futures as already breached, leaking, shattered.","PeriodicalId":44307,"journal":{"name":"Design and Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41295566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Du Bois on “abolition democracy.” Design has not often been seen in relationship to this tradition, in part because designers contribute to making the very systems, sites, materials, or mechanisms that abolitionist-oriented efforts oppose; for instance, those that sustain mass surveillance, incarceration, and containment. In Du Bois’s approach, however, it is also evident that there is potential for design to participate in envisioning and creating conditions for abolition democracy. In order to clarify some generative relations between design and abolition democracy, this article outlines some aspects of the theory and practice of abolition democracy from Du Bois’s writings on the Reconstruction Era, applying them to the present. It argues for the relevance of designing for abolition democracy, historically and for action today, while also pointing to the potential for emerging design practices to learn from the models of action and thought that Du Bois offers.","PeriodicalId":44307,"journal":{"name":"Design and Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47300853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
