Embracing change and supporting transitions

Approaches to systemic change in products, services and systems

The volume presents a series of studies and reflections on how design is approaching the transition towards more uncertain futures: novel ways of integrating new disciplines such as data analysis, artificial intelligence, neurosciences into practice and theory and explore the extension of design processes to develop new frameworks for tackling major societal and environmental changes.

The volume presents a series of studies and reflections on how design is approaching the transition towards more uncertain futures. Starting from a shared understanding that we are facing radical transformations of our physical and social world, all the authors embrace a systemic perspective to position the role of design in addressing these challenges.
The chapters present novel ways of integrating new disciplines such as data analysis, artificial intelligence, neurosciences into practice and theory and explore the extension of design processes to develop new frameworks for tackling major societal and environmental changes.
One of the main conclusions of the book is that the complexity of the challenges, and the systemic approaches needed to address them, mean that the efforts can only be collective and multidisciplinary. No single project or single design group can take on board the range of transformations, collectively, however, each project can contribute to creating elements which become components of innovation that in turn can be mobilised by other systems.
