Design Class

OSE Design

OSE teaches how to design anything using an integrated product ecology approach. OSE's university level design takes all sectors of society, and provides deep knowledge on how to design all aspects of civilization. This includes agriculture, technology, and infrastructure.

A given year has 200 lessons, and here is year 1.

General

General format is understanding scope, where it fits in civilization-building, understanding components, principles, best practices, calculations, interface design, modularity, product ecology.
