Systemic Design Framework

The Systemic Design Framework is our overall, high-level methodology for Design for Planet.

It keeps the core premise of the Double Diamond (divergent and convergent thinking) and asks designers to come together to Explore, Reframe, Create and Catalyse. It also expands the design process to encompass the ‘invisible activities’ that sit around it: Orientation and vision setting, Connections and relationships, Leadership and storytelling, and Continuing the journey.

Three key opportunities for design:

Drive zero emissions through equitable technology and behaviour change

Reimagine materials, re-use waste and create a fair, circular economy

Regenerate places by restoring biodiversity and building the skills of communities to care for nature and each other
