Summary

To reshape our future design, designers need to actively bridge the divide between global cultures and communities. We must look to the Majority World's historical experiences to understand how to better integrate traditional hand techniques with modern industrial manufacturing. By combining data from the developed world with practical wisdom from developing nations, we can create systems that serve the poor directly and support diverse community lives within the built environment. This approach requires a deep symbiotic relationship, ensuring that future work remains not just about production but also about preserving and expanding cultural traditions through these new partnerships.
