The Distributed Design Platform presents Driving Design Vol. III, the latest edition in our annual publication series. This book serves as a time capsule, capturing the evolution of the Distributed Design Platform through its challenges, failures, and achievements. It is a reflection on a growing movement that redefines not just how we design and produce, but how we relate to each other, our knowledge, and ecosystems.
This year, Driving Design Vol. III moves beyond thematic explorations to examine the systems that shape design itself: the (re)distribution of making, knowledge, value, and power, and presents mutable and relational practices of design, emphasizing on co-creation and adaptability over rigid frameworks.
More than a book - it is an invitation to join a movement. As the world faces unprecedented challenges, this publication serves as a resource, a provocation, and a space for reflection. Whether you are a designer, researcher, maker or cultural practitioner, this book offers new perspectives on how design can drive meaningful change.
Distributed Design Vol. III is a must-read for thos invested in the future of design, collaboration, and creative resilience.
