THE LENS TRANSCULTURAL DESIGN EXERCISES:

. Asian students design for the EU context being critisised by the EU teacher (+ vice versa)


why should (YOU) students design a sustainable concept for a far away context?

THIS (“FORCED”) LEARNING PROCESS ENABLES:A. students (designing for other campus/contexts) to discover a context different from their own by a strategic analysis and by the direct critics of local teachers over their design.B. teachers (revising the concept designed for their own campus/contexts) to discover the other’s culture interpretation (and be surprised by unusual ideas).C. to build an articulated and shared visions of possible changes (catalogue of sustainable ideas).


THEME (DESIGN BRIEF):

POLITECNICO DI MILANO UNIVERSITY, ITALY

HAS COMMISSIONED (TO YOU) THE DESIGN OF A SUSTAINABLE SYSTEM CONCEPT FOR EATING

FOR THEIR UNIVERISTY CAMPUS


DESIGN EXERCISE PHASES (AND TOOLS)


(MODULAR) PHASES:. Strategic analysis. Exploring opportunities. System concept design. System design (and engineering). Communication

YOU WILL (PARTLY) ADOPT THE MSDS: Method for System Design for Sustailability

MSDS: PHASES/PROCESSES OBJECTIVESGaining the information needed to facilitate the generation of ideas oriented towards sustainability

Producing a “catalogue” of promising strategic possibilities, i.e. a sustainability design-orienting sceanario

Defining one or more system concept oriented towards sustainability

Developing the most promising system concept in a detailed version necessariy to its implementation

Producing the documents for the external communication of the solution’s characteristics (general characteristics but above all the sustainability ones)
