The Design Science Decade

Part 1: 1965-1975 / Part 2: 2020-2030

“It’s Utopia or Oblivion” — R. Buckminster Fuller

As the world continues to delve deeper into a critical state, the Design Science Studio’s co-founder Amanda Joy Ravenhill highlights our WHY, our QUEST and our FUTURE as Buckminster Fuller predicted.

Fuller, described as the Leonardo DaVinci of the 20th century (way ahead of his time), could see the future –– anticipating humanity’s needs through looking to nature as design inspiration.

Nature Magazine did a study and discovered that you only need 25% of a population to believe in something for that something to become mainstream.

Decades of green activism and solutionism are finally coming out of the underground and joining the conversation.

The future is always first an idea.

Our work is to dream.
Our work is to imagine.
Our work is to empower those who can draft and sketch the future we want to inhabit and to give them wings to share those visions with the world.


Because we only need help 1 in 4 people understand what is possible.

This is the decisive decade for the future. What we do now will change the course of history forever.

The difference between the best and worst case scenario has perhaps never been greater with climate collapse, income inequality, food insecurity, water shortages, systemic racism, indigenous genocides and mass extinction.

The task of the decade is to apply all our human ingenuity, creativity, and tools to transform from an economy based on dominance, exploitation, competition and control to a new world economy based on consent, regeneration, cooperation and reciprocity.

If this makes you feel empowered and motivated to become a part of the change, follow along and check out Design Science Studio’s upcoming events, opportunities and encouraging words for you to change the course of history.
