Part I. Episteme: The Philosophy of Design
In everything, there is a share of everything.
Anaxagoras
In this part, we explore the figure of design itself. We examine in new light how our work designing software came to be shaped, and challenge some received views in our industry. We reimagine architecture as the work of creating concepts, and see how to express those concepts working with teams to create effective software designs.
