What is the ecological mindset?
The ecological mindset is about observing ecological systems and designing with them, rather than at them.Why is this important?
As highlighted by the recent strategic shifts of industry leaders Design Council (to Design for Planet) and Don Norman (to Design for 21st Century), we are seeing a societal shift of designers from designing on the world to designing with the world. This is especially pertinent given the ecological crises we face.So let's explore: 👀
- What does this design paradigm shift look like?
- Some simple techniques to cultivate the ecological mindset.
- How we can practically integrate ecological mindsets in our current UX practise.The workshop will be followed up at a later date with a walk n' talk session to share and discuss how you've been finding it.
Limited to 30 participants. This won't be recorded.
Your facilitating hosts will be Rowan Brooks, Sanna Rau & Finlay Stevens-Hunt. Space kindly provided by DNA.
