'Erodium' is a systems model which presents an ‘upward spiral’ conceptualisation of a future economy. Its directionality is upward and outward toward growth and possibility, but at the same time it is deeply embedded in and driven from place.

Inspired by the unique corkscrew-shaped seeds of the erodium plant, which disperses and proliferates through its seeds ‘drilling’ into the soil, the prototype design and model utilises the principles of the ‘Archimedean screw’, incorporating simultaneous upward and downward directionality.

'Erodium' has widespread potential application across multiple strategic and delivery frameworks, including new economic and scaling models, dynamically connecting depths of place, cultures and time to forward vision, futures and global agendas.
