DesignXDiscourse is a workshop and discourse series that is empowering citizens to speculate about possible futures and share their opinions. All narratives that are created in the course of the series are visualized as product webpages here. The presented product webpages are artifacts through which the narratives about possible futures are transported to our present. They invite us to think about the future, deliberate with others and reflect our current times.
Would you like to host a workshop or participate in the next workshop? We’re happy to hear from you.

The report gives an overview of the developed framework, the workshop process and introduces all workshop outcomes that were created in 2020. The workshops focused on the digital public sphere and digitalized living spaces in general – but the framework can also be applied to alternative topics.
The report also includes interviews with two design experts who present their perspective.
THE FRAMEWORK
BRIEFLY EXPLAINED
THE FRAMEWORK BRIEFLY EXPLAINED
To conduct the workshops we developed a workshop framework that allows every interested citizen to participate. No prior knowledge is required. The method of the framework is a fusion of principles from speculative design, critical design and graphic design and also has great influences from participatory design and last but not least deliberative democracy. We perceive it as a deliberative design approach for citizens to collaborate on tech narratives about our futures. The resulting visual narratives are a starting point for the broader society to deliberate together.
