SCOPE OF THE COURSE
SYSTEM DESIGN FOR SUSTAINABILITY (SDS)

TEACH (WHAT IS KNOWN) ABOUT THE THEORY
AND THE PRACTICE OF SYSTEM DESIGN FOR
SUSTAINABILITY (SDS)
OR PRODUCT-SERVICE SYSTEM (PSS) DESIGN FOR
SUSTAINABILITY

Carlo Vezzoli

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

SYSTEM DESIGN FOR SUSTAINABILITY:
STATE OF THE ART
A “YOUNG” DISCIPLINE:
. innovative role for the design
. starts to be consolidated as knowledge-base
and know-how (methods and tools)
. low diffusion into design education
. appearing now the first request of such
competencies form the companies/enterprises

design exercise …

THEME (DESIGN BRIEF):
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY (DEHLI) HAS
COMMISSIONED FOR THEIR CAMPUS THE DESIGN OF
A SUSTAINABLE SYSTEM CONCEPT FOR EATING

prof. Ravi Mokashi, Radhika Ralhan (from IIT):
. introduction/information on campus and eating and
design for sustainability in India
. critics during the design process

Carlo Vezzoli

why should (YOU) students design a
sustainable concept for a far away context?

THIS (“FORCED”) LEARNING PROCESS ENABLES:
A. students (designing for other campus/contexts) to
discover a context different from their own by a
strategic analysis and by the direct critics of local
teachers over their design.
B. teachers (receiving the concept designed for their
own campus/contexts) to discover the other’s culture
interpretation (and be surprised by unusual ideas).
C. to build an articulated and shared visions of
possible changes (catalogue of sustainable ideas).

LENS’ AMBITION
promote a new generation of Asian and European
designers capable of designing for sustainability
Product-Service System innovation
(through a new generation of design educators)

Carlo Vezzoli

MAIN OUTPUT:
Open Learning E-Package on DfS focused on PSS
a web platform allowing interested teachers to download open
source and copyleft learning resources (slideshows, texts,
audio-videos, etc.) that could be modified/remixed and reused,
i.e. adapted according to each teacher’s specific didactic needs,
institutional requirements and local context peculiarities

Carlo Vezzoli

MAIN ACTIVITY: 8 (transcultural) pilot courses:
. an asian teacher is guest by a EU teacher (+ vice versa)
and they are observed by a third teacher
. EU students design for asian context (+ vice versa)

Carlo Vezzoli

… build through a transcultural learning process

e.g. a student wants to view/download learning resources

e.g. a teacher wants to set-up/up-date a course on DfS and
wants to search for appropriate learning resources to download,
and then modify, integrate and reuse in his/her course

Carlo Vezzoli

…by default the “TEACHER/COURSE/YEAR”
section is selected, but a search by
a) the teacher/student clicks
“CONTENT/TYPE” is also available…

LENS APPROACH IN A OPEN SOURCE AND
COPYLEFT ETHOS
LENS AS A “REGENERATIVE” WEB PLATFORM
THE SAME LENS WEB PLATFORM IS DOWNLOADABLE
AS OPEN SOURCE AND COPYLEFT
> any educational institution, teacher, sustainability-focused
network, can generate a new LeNS-based web-platform:
reconfiguring it by re-defining the new network of teachers,
the sustainability focus, the geographical representation
> any new generated web platform let the new network of
teachers to upload learning resources independently, though
all LeNS-based web-platforms are interlinked
