Systemic Design Methodology Find additional information, downloadable method cards, and useful links on each method on the CoLab website. CoLab’s SD methodology is composed of four main activities: Look, Frame, Generate, and Adapt…or, as we like to call it: loofragenada! Loo…fra… ge…wha…? LOOK: “We need more information!” FRAME: “We have different understandings of the problem.” GENERATE: “We’re ready to test ideas!” ADAPT: “We have learnings to integrate into our approach.” When choosing which SD method to use, start by asking yourself: At what stage of the challenge are you? Loofragenada is not a cycle you have to follow, or a process you begin at a particular place. Start where it makes sense to start, based on where you are in the work. Different groups will come to SD at different points in their process. It is the facilitator’s task to work with the client to understand their needs: where they’ve been, where they are now, and where they need to go. Where do I start? Those are the 4 basic activities of systemic design! That depends! It’s not a linear process! 36
