What is Life-centred Design?

FREE INTERACTIVE WORKSHOPS

Designers | Innovators | Leaders | Climate + Sustainability Pros

Learn about life-centred design as you innovate in these interactive sessions where nature, future generations, and marginalised voices are part of the conversation.

You’ll create, not just learn.

Learn how life-centred design expands a designer’s skillset and the ability to think beyond the user as you innovate a business and product with sustainability, inclusivity, and regeneration in mind.

Guided by Damien Lutz, Founder of Life-centred Design Lab

2023—Free Workshop, Designing a future life-centred product with speculative designers using non-human personas

As a guest workshop facilitator for Speculative Design Sydney, I introduced participants to life-centred thinking via a workshop set in 2030, where participants designed with AI, future tech, life-centred design, and a non-human persona to speculate a future life-centred version of an everyday product.

In four teams, we explored a future world that prioritises repairing and reusing over making new things by designing a future, life-centred mattress system, shifting it from being a ubiquitous product that uses a lot of resources and creates a lot of landfill to one that causes less harm and regenerates nature.

I am the voice of the trees who were taken to make the product I speak from.

We, the trees, gave shade, clean air, homes for countless creatures, and the gift of oxygen for you to breathe. We cooled the earth, held the soil, and stored the carbon that would have otherwise harmed you.

Now, as a user of this product, you are part of this legacy, and a custodian of the things we once were. 

I ask you to honor the role we played for your planet. Where we are taken, help new trees rise, and protect those who still stand tall. Nurture them as they nurture you, for your future is rooted in our regeneration.
