1) How this is or isn’t a Design for Resilience methodology:

I would argue that this does play into the Design for Resilience methodology. There is a whole page in this exert that shows ecodesign strategy examples, which includes how the products are eco friendly, like having low impact and what type of materials it is made out of if it is created using sustainable resources. This is an aspect of the Design for Resilience methodology because the examples shown are products where the designer is aware and conscious of the materials used and how the impact the environment. The Okala Impact Factors describe how certain materials and factors effect the environment. This does play into the Design for Resilience methodology because it is providing knowledge about materials and their impact. With this knowledge, designers can be more conscious and be more informed on how to design for resilience.

2) How the design of the document itself helps you to understand its content:

The design of the document itself helps me understand the content better because of the use of graphics in it. There are many different types of graphics present, like line graphs, bar graphs, charts and Venn diagrams. These tools present the information in a visual way that makes it more interesting and easier to understand than just written in black and white in a paragraph form. Especially the charts and graphs are very informative because this makes it easier and quicker to understand the raw data rather than reading the information in a paragraph form and having to decipher what is being said. The page that talks about environmental impact categories is designed really well to help understand the content. To explain the types of ecological damage, there is not only a written description; there is a photograph that visually represents the ecological damage. To be able to visually see what it is that the text is describing makes me understand the content better.
