Class2.9 PDC+++ : Class2.9 PDC+++ Which design techniques do I have at my disposal & how do I know when to apply them? Design & Structures Pattern Language Planning for Real Future Histories Analytical Design PASE Observation Deduction from Nature Options & Decisions Data Overlays Random Assembly Flow Diagrams Zones & Sectors Incremental or Development

Slide 2 : Analytic Methods

Slide 4 : Deduction from Nature or Imitating Nature Design Methods

Slide 5 : Biomimicry what could nature teach us? http://www.biomimicryinstitute.org

Slide 6 : We study the forest structure and/or the climax Vegetation of the area Mimic nature

Slide 7 : • 1) TALL TREES • 2) LOWER TREES • 3) SHRUBS • 4) BUSHES • 5) HERBS • 6) TUBERS, ROOTS, FUNGI • 7) CLIMBING PLANTS The 7 Layers of the Forest:

Slide 9 : FlowBread decide to make bread unite ingredients oven, pans, spoon ... flour, yeast, oil, water, salt mix dry ingredients add oil, water + salt slowly is the consistency dry

Slide 10 : is the consistency sticky? put dough in pans pre-heat oven 200C leave to rise 20-30mins bake aprox 40-50mins put in oven FlowBread 2

Slide 11 : FlowBread

Slide 16 : - meet their needs - Their products are used THE DESIGN Place elements ... - where they are best connected - The science of better relative location of components

Random Assembly : Random Assembly Design Methods prepositions elements elements

invent games! : invent games!

Slide 28 : OBSERVE & DESIGN FLOWS - FLOW studies - systemic thinking

Slide 29 : 29

Systemic Flow : Systemic Flow Process - Design Yellow From 70 yrs PermaCulture - from 35 yrs Integrator, “system thinking”, holistic thinking everything affects everything

Slide 31 : 31

Slide 33 : ZONES AND SECTORS PLANIFICATION (Energy Efficient planning)

Slide 34 : ZONES PLANIFICATION WE LOCATE ELEMENTS ACCORDING TO THEIR USABILITY OR THE FREQUENCY WITH WHICH WE NEED TO WORK ON THEM. WE PLACE CLOSER THOSE ITEMS THAT NEED MORE OFTEN OUR ATTENTION, WHILE WE PLACE FURTHER THOSE ELEMENTS WITH LESS NEED TO BE VISITED.

Slide 35 : The boundaries between zones depend on many factors, including topography, visibility, access and sometimes may even not be very clear.

Slide 36 : IN THE MINIMUM OF SPACE AND DISTANCE. 1º. Perennials 3º. Annuals 2º. Self-reliant Water Heat Nutrients Avoid contamination PRODUCE MOST OF THE FOOD. LIBERATE NATURAL ZONES INCREASE EFFICIENCY. REDUCE WORK.

Slide 37 :

Slide 38 : A LESS INTENSIVE MANAGED ZONE.

Slide 39 : ZONE THAT WE VISIT VERY LITTLE

Slide 40 : SEMI-MANAGED, SEMI-WILD ZONE

Slide 41 : UNMANAGED ZONE, WILDERNESS

Slide 42 : highly intensive use ZONE 1 ZONE 2 grains & vegetables chicken tractor zone & forage ZONE 2 ZONE 3 intensive fruit systems extensive food crops & forest garden ZONE 3 ZONE 4 vegetable gardens less intensive use self-foraging system for large animals herbs

Slide 43 : SOME FACTORS WHICH CHANGES IN ZONE PLANNING AS DISTANCE INCREASE

Slide 44 : WE CAN DESIGN ZONE V AS A WILDLIFE CORRIDOR

Slide 45 : SECTOR PLANIFICATION ENERGY FROM OUTSIDE FLOWS TROUGH THE PLACE, WE CAN DIVIDE IT IN SECTORS TO BLOCK OR FACILITATE THIS EXTERNAL ENERGY FOR OUR CONVENIENCE. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE CARDINAL POINTS (NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST) WE WILL HAVE DIFFERENT SECTORS. • E – W: SUMMER SUN SECTOR AND WINTER SUN SECTOR (SMALLER :-)). • N: COLD WINTER WINDS SECTOR (Harmful) • S: HOT SUMMER WINDS, FIRE SECTOR. • SALTY WINDS SECTOR. • DESIRED OR UNDESIRED VIEWS SECTOR. • RISK OF FLOOD AREAS. • ACCESS.

Slide 53 : How can I best serve ?

Slide 54 : 2002

Slide 55 : Observing & learning leaving space for unknown

Slide 56 : 2003

Slide 57 : Vision: permaculturing & only go where invited

Slide 58 : 2004

Slide 59 : What does this system need from me? (that only I can give)
