Categorías:

In this episode, I talk Chris Jackson, Founder & Director of We Create Future in New Zealand on the journey from being a furniture designer in the UK into becoming a future thinker and service designer in New Zealand why future thinking is important and why there is not the “one future” but rather a plurality of futures why and how we as designers should consider the long term consequences in of our design decisions in times of design sprints and increasingly fast design circles how to shape public services and the “citizen experience” through service design and strategic foresight the design industry in New Zealand and the what are emerging design topics in the country the importance of empathy when designing future digital services: “your future might be awful to someone else” (why we should understand the user and understand that people prefer sometimes different futures and have different preferences that not align with the designer's point of view)  Again, this is a collaboration of IDSA (Industrial Design Society of America) and Designdrives. All episodes of this series were recorded at the 2019 International Design Conference (IDC) in Chicago. Want to learn more about “We create Futures”?
