SYSTEM DESIGN FOR SUSTAINABILITY A DEFINITION

“the design for eco-efficiency and social equity and cohesion of the system of products and services that are together able to fulfil a particular demand of (customer) “satisfaction”, as well as the design of the interaction of the stakeholders directly and indirectly linked to that “satisfaction” system (or value production system)”

[VEZZOLI, 2010]

Carlo Vezzoli


A. “SATISFACTION-SYSTEM” APPROACH

design the satisfaction of a particular demand (satisfaction unit)

B. “STAKEHOLDER CONFIGURATION” APPROACH

design the interactions of the stakeholder of a particular satisfaction-system

C. “SYSTEM SUSTAINABILITY” APPROACH

design such a stakeholder interactions (offer model) that continuously seek after both eco-efficient and socio-ethical new beneficial solutions

SYSTEM DESIGN FOR SUSATINABILITY: APPROACH

Carlo Vezzoli


- design an integrated system of products and services fulfilling a particular demand for “satisfaction”

- promote/facilitate new socio-economic stakeholders’ interactions

- promote/facilitate participated design between different stakeholders

- ORIENTATE THE ABOVE PROCESSES TOWARDS ECO-EFFICENT SOLUTIONS

- ORIENTATE THE ABOVE PROCESSES TOWARDS SOCIOETHICALLY SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS

SCOPE: promote a design process for the development of sustainable systems which is adaptable to various design requirements and integrable within various existing design processes

USERS: designer, design offices, designer within companies

USE MODALITIES: modular and flexible structure: easy to be adapted (by a designer/design office/designer in companies) to various design contexts and starting conditions

MSDS: PHASES OBJECTIVES

Gaining the information needed to facilitate the generation of sustainable ideas and scenarios for system innovations

Producing a “catalogue” of promising strategic possibilities, i.e. a sustainability design-orienting sceanario

Defining and designing one or more system concept oriented towards sustainability

Developing the most promising sustainable system concept in a detailed version necessariy to its implementation

Producing the documents for the external communication of the solution’s characteristics (general characteristics but above all the sustainability ones)
