The course Design Futures II expands on the introduction developed in the previous module, placing greater emphasis on the development of practices and the building of communities. This unit analyses case studies in which design operates as a pivot for social, economic, cultural, and organisational transformation. By questioning what design is and what it can become, the course familiarises students with complex forms of research, connecting societal realities and equipping them with tools to imagine alternatives.
