Instead of solving problems with technology we need to build social technology to help us solve (wicked) problems.
FUTURE DESIGN TRACK
REBUILD AS ASSISTANT
Redefine your business-client relationships and create interactive content that engages with your audiences from the first moment of contact.
Remediate your software design, and rethink your content design and delivery.
Strengthen yourself and your organisation with purpose and meaning and build interactive content that empowers employees, partners and customers.
It’s time that we design interactive content with principles and co-create distributed content management systems, because our centralized systems are failing.
We teach teams to build a conversational software and content with our proven future design track: Rebuild as Assistant.
Page-based software design and blockchain are no match.
If we want to prepare our web3 wallets and platforms for family and friends (mass adoption), we need to rethink our software design for blockchain from the ground up.
Our current web2 software is broken.
We are so used to giving away our energy and attention, that we became accustomed to being the product. Nothing is free, as our data is being sold to someone that might live next door. We spend 4-6 hours on our phones, and our attention is being farmed daily. We are seriously addicted to our technology and services, but what is the true positive impact on our lives?
Design research is being transformed into a new educational program.
Social Design Academy is doing ongoing design research on how we can humanize and democratize our web3 software design so it declutters and positively impacts our daily lives.
Haun Ventures called web3: “Software-driven innovation that has a built-in financial system.” We believe that web3 should be a social conversation-driven protocol that entangles principles, value, and incentives in new interactive content formats.
There is a lot to unlearn, relearn and unpack. Distributed Design is our paradigm of choice, as it holds the most promise to converge our energy into Collective Genius that gives us new tools to solve the crisis we are facing today.
The first three steps in changing our design attitude towards web3?
1. Colonial Design vs Liberating Design; Become aware of your current design culture.
2. Change your Design Perspective; Transition from human-centered design to assistant-centered design, as human-centered design separates people into groups/tribes.
3. Remediate our Interfaces; Transition from page-based interaction design to conversational interaction design. Making sound money actionable means that we need to align the social and financial layers.
Let's make web3 ready for family and friends by embracing
ASSISTANT CENTERED DESIGN
Build hospitable assistants that guide people to their goals based on digital storytelling, digital wayfinding, and interactive content.

PROJECT CATALYST / DESIGN CHALLENGE
Making cryptocurrency ready for family and friends.
In-wallet Onboarding for ADA-holders
This project is Design Research how we can turn page-based interaction design into screen first digital conversations. By using existing wallets as access point we avoid the potential snake pit of inaccurate and false information.
In this project we will investigate current Cryptocurrency Wallet design patterns and rebuild them into their conversational counterpart. This will result into a remediation of our page-based design into conversation design.
This research showed us a path towards Digital Goverance and Distributed Decision Making, which keeps people at the center of decision-making in a world where AI seems the only way forwards.
Define your Brand Assistant.
Our current software design approach focuses on technology and product features, rather than catering to individual needs. To improve our software design, we need to shift our mindset from product- or human-centered to assistant-centered. Instead of designing pages, we should focus on designing conversations. By creating a character canvas, we can future-proof our brand.
In the Rebuild as Assistant program, we'll explore the needs of the world and our audiences to help us design for well-being beyond our products and services. This will enable us to involve our customers more closely with our business.
To deliver a more user-friendly and trustworthy experience, we'll move beyond the digital realm and create interactive conversations that combine utility, education, and hospitality.
