Designing With Living Systems: What is over?
In an increasingly fragmented world, traditional design approaches often fall short of creating the systemic change our future needs. To cultivate regenerative and life-affirming work, we need new ways of seeing, thinking, and creating.
This monthly gathering is an interactive space for exploring how tuning into living systems, nature's own organizing principles, can reveal unseen dynamics and spark new possibilities. This month’s special session will approach the parts of ourselves that we need to let go of, addressing the ongoing death cycles in order to transform what is over into ‘what can be rebirthed?’
What we’ll do:
Explore a new way of seeing: each session introduces an approach from Systemic Constellations to design from a living systems point of view with somatic practices.
Hands-on exploration: Each person will have the opportunity to apply these practices to your own project, whether you're crafting a new product, reimagining a service, or building a social impact business.
Interactive Be-In: Collective sharing of reflections, insights, and possibilities.
Who is This For?
If you’re a designer, creative person, purpose-driven founder, or simply passionate about making meaningful change, this space is for you.
