Designing systems and architecture for societies.

Need an interdisciplinary study of design!

Problem solving inherently includes problem finding, i.e., discovery of social expectations

Learn from fields! Design

Definition of Design

When designing social systems, such as urban transportation systems, we cannot simply apply constraint optimization algorithms.

To know requirements or constraints, we need to organize a workshop with different stakeholders.

Design Innovation Hub for Fostering Student Development

community under the name of “Kyoto University Design School”.
