Building Utopia: A Futuring Guidebook

By Christina N. Harrington

Speculative design provides the opportunity for a creative reimagining of worlds, allowing us to see what is possible for more equitable and radical futures. Building Utopia: A Futuring Guidebook is part of a toolkit for radical Afrofuturist speculation, and was created by designers, educators, and organizers to help guide you through the process of envisioning equitable futures for yourself and your community. This guidebook was designed with the intention of encouraging design with, by, and for Black and Indigenous communities, communities not often represented in the design industry, and should be used by and alongside these communities. The Guidebook contains sample ideation and futuring exercises that can be used alone or with the Building Utopia Card Deck (sold separately). Whether you seek community-centered design inspiration or a container for your ideas, feel free to use this guidebook as a space to house your visions for the future.
