ABSTRACT
Many current global and local problems have arisen from the denial that our habitat is thoroughly embedded in nature’s complex network of ecosystems, and shared with a host of other living beings on whom we also depend. Human ecologists recommend that we should ‘align with nature’ in our design work, and encourage inclusive and socially participatory processes. To do so, we need to understand complexity and complex systems better. This chapter introduces a tool to help organise complex design information and generate ideas.
