Holistic Design Toolkit
A life-centred design toolkit to include the environment, animals, under-represented people, and future impacts in design-thinking
As designers and product creators, we are not just producing items with a lifecycle defined by human use. We are releasing into the world something that impacts multiple ecosystems spanning the time and distance of the product’s entire lifecycle, from the sourcing of its various materials to the manufacturing, repair, life of use, and final breakdown.
The Holistic Design Toolkit helps designers and decision-makers include the environment and invisible humans in design thinking and speculative design
Holistic Futures Wheel
A decision-making and idea-exploring tool to explore the consequences of a change, like a product design or business decision that might impact humans and nature.
Product Lifecycle Impact Cards
This deck of cards consists of six sections that follow the true lifecycle of a product, from where and how Materials are sourced, through the Manufacturing, Supply, and Use stages, through to what happens at the Completion of its usable life, and the actual Breakdown of its parts back into the natural world.
You can use these cards to guide the design of new products or to assess the impact of existing ones.
You can also use these in conjunction with the Holistic Futures Wheel to help generate results for the LIFE direct/indirect results.
Non-human, non-user, and user personas
Persona documents to represent those impacted by the product lifecycle, to give them a voice in design and business decisions.
Core Values List
A tool to help you consider and identify your own values to champion in design and help you envision the future you want to design.
“Life-centred Design In Nature” Workshop Kit
A nature-immersive workshop you can use to teach your team, class, or clients how to design for more than human needs using non-human personas. This 23-page Workshop Kit PDF includes:
