Abstract: All over the world, dwindling bee populations are a cause for concern, with some species of bee now officially marked as endangered. To support the bees, this paper speculates on a world where bee kind and humankind live intertwined with one another. Through design, this paper questions anthropocentric norms embodied in design, which turn us away from the non-human. This project incorporates nonhuman agency as an active agent in creating a design, which explores a becoming- with others - in a flourishing world.
