Abstract
The emergence of digital public services in Australia is evidencing a techno-colonisation of service design imaginaries. This paper considers how design tools are mediating this process. A workshop with seven designers experimented with four speculative and decolonising design tools to interrogate three areas of public services. The resulting maps and design fictions suggest just public service futures might be envisioned through design tools that make socio-political tensions more visible.
