Embedding Design
in Life
Embedded design is a human centred approach influencing
all aspects of life.

Embedded design embraces finding solutions for citizen’s
needs and ensures that innovations are accepted by people.


Embedded design is a method to realize the dream of
sustainability.
2011   
   
2012   
   
   
2017
We are expecting remarkable long
run effects on the following areas:
1) Improving the organising capacity of the Helsinki region.

2) Making the city smarter so that social services and
infrastructure will give every citizen an opportunity for better
everyday life.

3) Making Helsinki more attractive internationally.

4) Many Helsinki-based and Finnish companies are able to
make use of the WDC Helsinki status in their local and
international business operations.
