While conceptually the simplest of the geodesign frameworkâs steps, actually performing the study in the third iteration can be an exhaustive process that requires multiple revisions until stakeholders accept the final result. However, through healthy collaboration and keen eye for leverage points, a favorable design will emerge.
This completes our tour of geodesign frameworks and concepts for this course. As you can see, there are multiple ways of approaching design, but several key principles carry throughout each of the frameworks we touched on. Design is complex and it is messy. This is why it is so critical to have a framework. That way, if you get lost, you at least know where you are.
Next week, we will discuss the future of geodesign and its role during this critical time on Earth.
Your final project is due very soon. Please review your syllabus for details and requirements.
