BIS Publishers launches Systemic Design book by Kristel Van Ael and Peter Jones

Jones (SDA, OCADU) and Van Ael (Namahn) co-authored a practitioner’s handbook for experienced designers and interested scholars to learn leading design and thinking practices of systemic design.  

Based on the authors’ development of the Systemic Design Toolkit, the book develops design practices developed from core knowledge published in systems science. Using a tour guide metaphor, Design Journeys trains people’s mindsets and provides tools for dealing with hyper complexity, to enable understanding of systemic problems, and to build capacity to collaborate in teams to produce action proposals.
