Call for ideas 2019
Reflective Practice
Reflective Practice
- Systemic changes
Environmental and social crises demand that we as designers, shift our practices to respond to challenges ahead. There is an abundance of projects studying the impact of the Anthropocene and even more providing solutions towards resilient, socially equitable futures. However, these ideas are scattered and contextual, holding pockets of information with the practitioners themselves. Though the speed of information-flow is now high, the diffusion of knowledge from practice - critical to social and environmental challenges - can be quite slow. This project will develop a model for knowledge diffusion across environmentally focused and socially-driven projects. 6 design practitioners from the Future Architecture call will engage in workshops facilitating their ‘reflection in action’, alongside developing their projects. A discursive text and series of diagrams will be produced for each project and will contemplate on the frames used, processes followed, challenges faced, and tools devised.
