In this view, designing futures means not only crafting novel products or systems but also reimagining cultural practices, values, and societal interactions. Philosophically, it involves questioning what a "good" future might look like, urging designers and thinkers to engage with uncertainty, ethical dilemmas, and transformative visions that reshape how we live and interact.

By integrating ethical considerations and societal impacts into the design process, proactive innovation aims not only to solve problems but also to shape desirable future contexts, ensuring that progress benefits society as a whole.
