Making cognition
Human building activity – the making of new tools, materials, artifacts, external representations, scientific models, instruments etc., and the systematic recombination of these to reshape the environment – has significantly damaged the planet’s biosphere and climate. New engineering design approaches – such as green energy and circular economies – have been proposed to contain the environmental effects of humans’ runaway making activity. Paralle…
Solving for Pattern
The human species’ adaptive advantage is driven by its ability to build new material structures and artefacts. Engineering is the modern manifestation of this building instinct, and its advent has made the construction and use of technologies the central pattern of human life. In parallel, efficiency, the overarching narrative driving technology and related life practices, has pervaded most occupations as a value, forming a cultural backdrop that…
Beyond Efficiency
There is a consensus that engineering design practice and education needs to change, to address the sustainability challenges facing the planet. This shift towards sustainability engineering requires illustrating successful design practices that embed sustainability values, particularly designs that move away from the current focus on input–output efficiency, towards eco-social and socio-technical approaches to design. We present three cases wher…
