Participatory Speculative 
Design // Studio ANDNAND



We have : Generative Human Intelligience x Imagination


ANDNAND works with stakeholders and communities who want to research and take action towards alternative futures beyond the projected dystopia/utopia. We all know, there is something more nuanced and collective. We bring to the table tools of systemic design, inclusive and speculative design and playful foresight to collectively imagine alternative futures, for people who wants to move forward collectively in a more-than-human world. 

Most of our commissioned research projects and workshops are related to health(care) and ecology, often links to urban design and innovation.  We also run our own shop selling self-published research, exploring and experimenting at the edges of care and belonging in a more-than-human world.

ABOUT




 There are several ways to read the name of the studio: and nand (nand is not-and in terms of electronics logic gate); and n’ and; or simply a series of a‘s, n’s and d’s, perhaps like a string of alternative DNA. Plurality. ANDNAND in one word also signifies the place I intend to operate from - both and neither, in the in-between space, beyond dichotomies.
