Design transition and climate change

The contribution frames the ongoing doctoral research upon the role of Nature- based solution and Circular economy within the design transition due to the climate change. Through the presentation of a selected project, a case study research, and the definition of a research perspective, the article highlights the current limits in the usage of NBS and CE, focusing on the necessity of an aesthetical and cultural specification of these strategies. Finally, the need for a systemic design approach and the necessity of a long- term resilience open to a deeper research investigation.
