Abstract

We wanted to rephrase Cedric Price’s famous riddle that questioned the promise of technology. We therefore formulated the following provocation: “Design is the answer, but what was the question?” In this case, what could be the promise of design? We ask another question: “If design is not the answer, what could it be?” Whatever the answer, we make it clear that what design can do is answer the echoes of our relationship with everyone and everything on the planet we share—our common home—and ask what might not happen in a world-without-us—an unthinkable world.
