4. SYSTEM DESIGN FOR ECO-EFFICIENCY
DEFINITION:
“the design for eco-efficiency of
the system of products and
services that are together able
to fulfil a particular demand of
(customer) “satisfaction”, as well
as the design of the interaction
of the stakeholders directly and
indirectly linked to that
“satisfaction” system”
(VEZZOLI, 2010)
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
5. SYSTEM INNOVATION MAIN CHARACTERISTIC
ROOTED IN A SATISFACTION-BASED ECONOMIC MODEL
each offer is developed/designed and delivered in relation to a
particular customer “satisfaction” (unit of satisfaction)
STAKEHOLDER INTERACTIONS-BASED INNOVATION
radical innovations, not so much as technological ones, as
new interactions/partnerships between the stakeholders of a
particular satisfaction production chain (life cycle/s)
INTRINSIC ECO-EFFICIENCY POTENTIAL
innovations that could lead up to new economic interest
convergences between the stakeholders, characterized by an
intrinsic eco-efficiency
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
6. SYSTEM DESIGN FOR ECO-EFFICIENCY: APPROACH
A. “SATISFACTION-SYSTEM” APPROACH
design the satisfaction of a particular demand
(satisfaction unit)
B. “STAKEHOLDER CONFIGURATION” APPROACH
design the interactions of the stakeholder of a
particular satisfaction-system
C. “SYSTEM ECO-EFFICIENCY” APPROACH
design such a stakeholder interactions (offer
model) that for economic and competitive
reasons continuously seek after environmentally
beneficial new solutions

Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
7. A. “SATISFACTION-SYSTEM” APPROACH
design the satisfaction of a particular demand
(unit of satisfaction)
THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE PRODUCT TO BE
DESIGNED (ASSESSED), BUT RATHER ALL THE
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES (AND ALL THE
RELATED PROCESSES) ASSOCIATED WITH THE
FULFILMENT OF A PARTICULAR (CUSTOMER)
DEMAND OF SATISFACTION
... A SATISFACTION UNIT COULD BE DEFINED
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
8. SATISFACTION UNIT:
(a car):
functional unit: trasportation of one persosn (per one km)
(possible with a car)
satisfaction unit 1: one person having access to his/her working
space (per one year)
satisfaction unit 2: one person having access to public services
delivering personal documents (per one year)
. ...
a satisfaction unit require an approach at the same time:
. deeper (more products, services, stakeholders to be considered)
. more narrow (looking at one particular customer satisfaction)
Carlo Vezzoli
Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
9. SATISFACTION APPROACH IN DESIGN
IS TO THINK MORE ON BEING (SATISFIED),
RATHER ON HAVING (PRODUCTS TO BE
SATISFIED)
[Ehrnelfeld, Sustainability by design, 2008]

Politecnico di Milano / INDACO dept. / DIS / Faculty of Design / Italy
11. B. “STAKEHOLDER CONFIGURATION” APPROACH
design the interactions of the stakeholder of a
particular satisfaction-system
[a parallel with product design: it imagines and defines
the technical performance and aesthetic characteristics of
“components” – materials/shape - and their
“connections” – joining elements - to respond to a set of
“requirements” ]
systems design for eco-efficiency: it imagines and
defines
“connections” – interactions/partnerships –
between appropriate
“components” – socio-economic stakeholders –
of a system, responding to a particular
“requirement” - social demand for satisfaction -

13. C. SYSTEM ECO-EFFICENCY APPROACH
design such a stakeholder interactions (offer
model) that for economic and competitive reasons
continuously seek after environmentally beneficial
new solutions
NOT ALL SYSTEM INNOVATION ARE ECO-EFFICENT!
> CRITERIA AND GUIDELINES ARE NEEDED
> METHODS AND TOOLS ARE NEEDED to orientate
design towards system eco-efficent stakeholder
interactions

26. INTERRELATIONS BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL
CRITERIA (AND RELATED GUIDELINES)
FOR A GIVEN SATISFACTION SYSTEM:
- some have HIGHER RELEVANCE than others
- can be SYNERGETIC or CONFLICTING
FOR DECISION MAKING (DESIGNING)
identify the (environmental) design PRIORITIES:
> CRITERIA relevance (relative) per system type
> most promising stakeholders’ INTERACTIONS
types (criteria related GUIDELINES)
