Bibliographic Details
Title: Designing Complexity : The Methodology and Practice of Systems Oriented Design
Description: This book addresses one of the most pressing issues of our time: How can we design for, with, and in service of the complex world we live in? How can we be useful as designers in a rapidly changing world due to technological, political, and social processes, as well as climate change and nature destruction? Designers have some beneficial skills for planning with complex systems in mind, yet some old habits need to be overcome. Design's traditional purpose and role has been to solve problems, find order, organize, and simplify. Yet, the concept of designing complexity goes against these established beliefs because complexity cannot be designed away. So, instead, we present ways to live with, influence, and benefit from complex systems. The book presents Systems Oriented Design (SOD), a design methodology and design practice, especially geared toward understanding and working with complex systems.
