signifies recursion & iteration. A recursive design process has the
ability to employ the same principles and processes on itself that it
employs on the systems it designs. An iterative design processseeks
to develop the whole from the very beginning and to add levels of
definition and understanding over time. All levels will engage in
iterations of work, not to arrive at the perfect answer, but to learn
from each other, get feedback and take the idea further. Recursion
facilitates robustness and resilience in our solutions. Working
iteratively allows better feedback, and holds open the space for
emergence. 
signifies collaboration. When done well, collaboration unleashes
collective intelligence and channels that intelligence into the design
and decision-making processes to produce dramatically better results.
Collaboration recognizes that everyone has expertise, and there are no
experts in the fields of the unknown and undiscovered. The complex
problems we face today call for all kinds of intelligences, voices, and
vantage points. 
signifies
design. Design is a very lively process. It is hands on both playful
and thoughtful. There are no pat answers. The role of designer can be
highly liberating. It can give wings to a new-found freedom to innovate
and take part. Design is challenging in that often, there are no clear
boundaries and either/or answers. For designers, a chance to help shape
a new paradigm is the highest reward. It is a great time to be alive
and able to contribute to the creating of a more equitable world and
the restoration of planet Earth.
