DesignWISE is grounded in a critique of the linear brief-to-solution thinking that is widespread in design practice, namely the assumption that there is a straight path from brief to solution. The book's argument is that this thinking can stand in the way of deeper, regenerative change, because it rarely leaves room to understand the broader consequences of our choices and the complex systemic relations they are part of.
This book introduces DesignWISE as a holistic alternative - a circular decision-making tool grounded in design thinking, systemic leadership, and indigenous wisdom traditions. Rather than moving linearly from step to step, DesignWISE invites designers, leaders, and teams into a cycle of reflection, evaluation, and renewal.
Its underlying premise is that meaningful change begins from within, in the coupling between inner intention and outer action. By cultivating presence and curiosity, we can unlock new sources of insight and move beyond conventional design approaches.
DesignWISE is both theory and method. It offers thinking models and conceptual frameworks for practicing planetary design thinking, as well as concrete tools for translating them into design decisions, whether working alone or in teams.
DesignWISE is for anyone seeking to design with greater wisdom, depth, and a heightened awareness of the planetary relations we are part of. For every design decision is, ultimately, a decision about the planet's future.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. A conceptual framework and practical guide to a new, planet-centered approach to design. DesignWISE challenges the linear logic that has long shaped design practice. Too often, we move from brief to solution without pausing to understand the wider consequences of our choices or the systemic relations they affect. In doing so, we overlook opportunities for deeper, regenerative change. This book introduces DesignWISE as a 360-degree alternative-a circular decision-making tool grounded in design thinking, systemic leadership, and Indigenous wisdom traditions. Rather than progressing step by step, DesignWISE invites designers, leaders, and teams into a continuous cycle of reflection, evaluation, and renewal. At the center of the method is a wheel: a structure inspired by the medicine wheel, encouraging holistic awareness, multiple perspectives, and a stronger connection between inner intention and outer impact. Each phase of the wheel opens a space for introspection, imagination, and responsibility, helping us understand how design decisions resonate across people, organizations, and the planet. DesignWISE ultimately argues that meaningful transformation begins with a shift in awareness-how we see, sense, and relate to the world. By cultivating presence, curiosity, and critical reflection, we can unlock new sources of insight and move beyond conventional approaches to design. DesignWISE introduces a 360-degree, regenerative approach to design development. Bringing together designers, thinkers and changemakers and moving beyond linear processes, combining design thinking, systemic leadership, and earth-based wisdom traditions to foster reflection, intentional action and a deeper, more sustainable way of shaping change.
