Superstitious Thoughts
How our world is shaped around our irrationalities.

The Design Research platform centres around Superstitions and Irrationalities. How they emerge from our private spheres to infect larger and more complex systems. Some are more obvious such as lifts and hotels avoiding auspicious numbers whilst some are more eye opening ones such as 'feng shui holes' in buildings and the fact that having a number 13 household automatically devalues your house by £7,511.

Links and Publications
The Research can be found on the Design Research Platform - Superstitious Thoughts.
Whilst the texts, essays and case studies were transfered into the small publication - Irrational Essays
