Dovetailing searches for connections between design and social change.
The design discipline is generative and problem-solving. In the last few years the design field has grown outwards, its methods -design thinking- applied to business strategy and, by consequence, to social change and innovation. This blog tracks down connections, players and projects in the field of design for social change, analyzing the findings in a skeptical, assertive light. Unclouded by optimism, this blog searches for action upon our surroundings, and change in processes, systems and ideas that don't work.
