Designer’s Roles
• Deeply understanding a project’s economic, social and environmental drivers, that consider viability, sustainability and scalability.
• Nurturing entrepreneurial skill sets to ensure entire design process challenges current economic models.
• Pitching ideas through mapping and systematic visualisation of the implications of all design decisions.
• Managing innovation through new tools (open data, data visualisation, PSS, PD, scenario prototyping...).
