Welcome to
Big, 1988 by Penny Marshall

4.
A 4-hour immersion into the
core principles and applications of
Speculative Design & Design Fiction
practices

5.
Differently from traditional design,
Speculative Design & Design Fiction
are practices focused on
encouraging people to debate
about alternative visions and
prototype for preferable futures

6.

Discursive Design
Design Fiction
Design Futures
Futures Design
Futurescaping
Design Probes
Design for Debate
Adversarial Design
Interrogative Design
Speculative
Design

8.
In this hands-on session, you will
experience different design techniques
and use futurish.cards, a generative card
deck that will allow you to play with
scenarios and artefacts from the future

the deck

18.
The deck is made of
50 cards

19.
Cards are grouped into 5 sets

20.
Cards from sets can be combined
to create different prompts
for envisioning scenarios and artefacts
from the future

23.
The cards can be easily integrated with
different techniques from Design Fiction
(diegetic prototypes) to Futures Thinking
(scenario matrix)

24.
The deck is aimed to stimulate concept
and scenario generation and it does not
meant to represent the entire process
of a speculative design project

25.
futurish.cards is gratefully inspired by Near
Future Laboratory - DF-DBCPC 0-7 and
Situation Lab - The Thing From The Future

Recommendations
for speculation

27.
#1
go beyond
commercial applications

28.
#2
facilitate
alternative visions

29.
#3
imagine possible
interactions and interpretations

30.
#4
fictional but
firmly functional

31.
#5
suspend
disbelief!

32.
#6
be
socially oriented

33.
By speculating, designers re-think
future products, services,
systems and worlds
