Its answer is a pedagogy of curiosity: students are trained in speculative practice, in building worlds through hands-on work with materials, and in storytelling as a design tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside documentation of the department's approach, essays from international voices in design, art and theory widen the frame. The result is less a manual than a method—one that treats the framing of a problem as the most consequential design decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdited by Nikolas Heep, Anab Jain and Stefan Zinell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContributions from Zoy Anastassakis, Paola Antonelli, Nana Biamah-Ofosu, Lilli Hollein, Rory Hyde, Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti and Fiona Raby, among others\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e125 colour illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned by Theresa Hattinger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Discover\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow speculative design and world-building can be taught as rigorous practices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy framing a question well matters more than arriving quickly at a solution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWays material experimentation and storytelling feed into design thinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow design education might respond to climate change and technological acceleration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Editors\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnab Jain is a designer and professor who leads the Department of Design Investigations at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.
