Also known as speculative design (or are we misunderstanding the terminology?). Design fiction is in some ways close to FFab's physical narration, with a focus on objects, products, (experience) prototypes (…) that are designed as if they are coming from the future, but can be experienced as tangible artifacts in the present.

• Design Fiction is that it is “the deliberate use of diegetic prototypes to suspend disbelief about change.”
