Systemic Design

Systemic Design is a framework of Systems Thinking. It is an inter-discipline that joins systems thinking to design methodology, integrating Systems Thinking and Human-centred Design to help designers cope with complex design projects.

Systemic design intends to develop methodologies and approaches that help to integrate systems thinking with design towards sustainability at the environmental, social and economic levels. It is a pluralistic initiative where many different approaches are encouraged to thrive and where dialogue and the organic development of new practices are central.

The systemic design dialogue is driven by the Relating Systems Thinking and Design Symposia.

Important players are Silvia Barbero and Peter Jones.
