From Design in Organisation (DIO) to Design in System (DIS)

The evolution of Strategic Design addresses the capacity to deal with complex social problems. Strategic Design moves from quick solutions, to guiding comprehensive problem understanding and innovative problem framing. Design shifts focus from physical product strategies to nurturing relationships among various stakeholders, fostering new behaviours and experiences. Strategic Design encompasses collective needs and empowers participants, emphasising engagement at different levels while addressing the entire ecosystem. Instead of incremental improvements, strategic designers question the foundational beliefs of existing systems and craft multiple components that work together to form alternative visions and narratives, fostering societal change.
