We are moving towards the future in uncertainty on our planet, which is changing at an unprecedented speed. However, it is also in our hands to find ideal futures by questioning alternative futures and to prepare people for these futures. Despite the rapid increase in global problems in such a major change, design education cannot be expected to remain constant and changing consumer needs and ecosystem problems can be ignored. This study deals with speculative design in the context of alternative futures to overcome more complex design problems. There are also studies on the question of how a design education that discusses ideal futures affects students' creative skills and future vision. The study argues that speculative design methods will contribute to the development of students' creative thinking skills by adapting them to industrial design education and offers a method proposal that can be applied using speculative design methodology regarding the solution of the research question.
