Design for Everyday living .....and Chaos?

Design is conceived of and developed with the concept of everyday living. Perhaps, one can design for emergency situations but can we get it right, because getting it wrong is not the same for design form everyday living. Disaster situations are dynamic and complex in which chaos ensues. I see design for chaos being centered on notions of activity theory, situated action models and distributed cognition. One can concede that human competency can rise and fall in chaotic disaster situations but the actions and activity engaged in does not differ based on the competency of the emergency management professional (EMPs).I define EMPs as any professional that is involved in the mitigation of loss of life and property and rescue of people from harm. All of these frameworks are concentrated on the action of the actor in situ. The divergence occurs more so around intent, object, and objective. I find these differences effective in creating different perspectives of interpretation of the same event. I see the integration of these frameworks in a disaster research paradigm as being instructive in future designs for chaos.
