Last night, I had the privilege of attending a global virtual event hosted by UX@UA to explore the release of "Designing Tomorrow," a groundbreaking book that examines how visionary design can shape our future. The discussion covered the Life-Centered Design Process and its integration with technology, business, human values, and environmental ethics to propose responsible innovative solutions for today’s design challenges. A heartfelt thank you to the authors and speakers, Steve Baty and Martin Tomitsch, for their valuable insights and for inspiring us to contribute towards our 1% of meaningful change. For those passionate about the future of design and sustainability, this book is a must-read! I’m particularly excited to read about the design method: backcasting and the collective impact of partnerships on design frameworks. https://lnkd.in/gqfWa3yh #DesigningTomorrow #Innovation #FutureOfDesign #VirtualEvent
