About

The DISRUPTIVE SOLUTIONS (Post-Industrial Design) mind map template, developed collaboratively during a workshop facilitated by Giorgio Olivero and Massimo Menichinelli, explores 36 nodes across 12 major branches covering the full product lifecycle from Design to End of life, plus systemic layers like PROCESSES, ROLES, and SOCIAL NETWORKS. It introduces concepts such as the 'Thingbook' (using social networks to map product life and sustainability) and a 'CC design database (open design repository)' for distributed fabbing scenarios. This template serves as a cheat sheet for rethinking industrial design through open, peer-to-peer models, integrating knowledge chains and product chains with platforms like an 'Itunes / Ikea platform' for open P2P marketplaces.

Frequently asked questions

It's a collaborative framework for post-industrial design, covering product lifecycle stages (Design, Manufacturing, Distribution, Use, End of life) and systemic concepts like social networks, knowledge chains, and open design repositories.

The Thingbook uses social networks to map product life and sustainability, enabling people to design, manufacture, and share products through product and user profiles.

It's an open design repository that supports a distributed fabbing scenario, allowing collaborative and decentralized manufacturing.

Yes, you can edit the nodes in Xmind to adapt the branches (e.g., PROCESSES, ROLES, LIMITS/CHOICES) to your specific context or project.

It proposes an open P2P marketplace that combines the Ikea supply chain model with the iTunes store platform for distributing designs and products.
