A framework not of rules, but of relations.
The NonSense Bazaar Framework is not a set of steps. It is a living constellation of principles, archetypes, and methods , a tangle of roots and stories rather than a straight line.
It invites you to design as if fungi are whispering in your ear, as if rivers are watching, as if ghosts of discarded plastics demand a say. It asks you to think beyond human comfort and beyond the sterile idea of “solution.”
Rooted in speculative design, indigenous knowledge, feminist STS, posthumanism and tentacular thinking, this framework offers ways to imagine, embody, and build with more-than-human worlds.
At its core lie six principles, each a seed to grow shared futures. Alongside them stand four designer archetypes, companions to guide you. The methods here are meant to be tried, adapted, and re-grown elsewhere. Embody a crab searching for a new shell. Map the dreams of a landfill. Build fictions that spill into reality.
This framework is an invitation: to care, to play, to speculate bravely — and to realize that design is not just about creating things, but about making kin with everything that breathes, leaks, crumbles, or grows.
Welcome to the tangle.
