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
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
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
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
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

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
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
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
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
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
MAIN OUTPUT: Open Learning E-Package on DfS focused on PSS
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
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
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy

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
