Imagination
We can’t create what we can’t imagine. This is your chance to assess the infrastructures of your imagination, embrace decay and let things go. Only then, do we shift into regenerative futures design.
FUNGI AS YOUR FUTURIST
Imagine we were more like fungi? This is a first-of-its kind playbook for imagining regenerative futures. It invites you to think like fungi, sharing 12 design principles inspired by nature’s intelligence.
Fungi as your Futurist playbook
This work subverts the status quo, enriched with insights from18 global thinkers from mycology to foresight and multidisciplinary design. Fungi show us new ways to think about our futures. In our playbook, we share 12 regenerative design principles for innovation, systems, brands and things.
DECOMPOSING THE INFRASTRUCTURES OF OUR IMAGINATION
In this session, we ask: what are the parts of our imagination? Are they helping to design regeneratively, or not? What can we let go? What remains and what needs to rot?

Case study: UAL London College of Communication - MA Art Direction & Design 2026
Together the students built collective imaginations from positionality, principles, and intersectionality, represented by homegrown mycelium blocks. After a rot ritual to release what no longer serves, they practised decomposition — asking: what remains (same form, same value), and what needs to rot (new form, new value) to nourish new growth?

Decomposition Day
In May 2026 Sporesight hosted our first Decomposition Day: 25 regenerative-curious souls decomposed fear-based collapse stories to nourish regenerative possibility. It was a day in the forest to go slow, let something go, and find new forms of value in the intentional dismantling of the imagination.
Case study: UAL London College of Communication - MA Design Management 2026
In a thinking through making workshop, Sporesight invited the students to construct a speculative response to a 2030 Decomposition Economy. Each group embodied a mycelial principle rooted in long-termism and composting, imagining how nature’s intelligence can help us think differently.

Rot + Regeneration session
Book a working session with your company or team. Designed to rot what isn’t serving, and regenerate be embedding fungal design principles into your project or initiative. Your team will leave inspired with possibility, a fresh fun(gi) lens and a take-home practice for integrating this in the work.
