Motivated by lectures in design, a short introduction to concepts around the Quadruple Bottom Line, i.e.  people, planet, profit, purpose, as well as the concept of ‘disruption’ (also employed by Industrial Designer, Williams),  empathic characteristics of Design Thinking launch a series of heart-warming case studies of varied businesses engineered by multinational designers studying in Australia . Visually engaging, the presentation employs simple typographic prompts followed by illustrated protocols defining each business (case study).
