In a rapidly developing society, the uncertainty and complexity of the future require design not only to solve present problems but also to proactively prepare for what lies ahead. Since traditional methods show limitations when responding to future challenges, the work aims to provide designers with an operable and systematic design framework. By integrating futures studies, transition design methodologies, and general design processes, a "Future Transition Design Framework" is proposed. To verify its validity and operability, a future-oriented workshop on "Future Silver Education" is conducted, through which a future vision for Silver education is constructed and present-day action strategies for guiding future transitions are developed. The workshop outcomes demonstrate that the framework can effectively guide participants in generating actionable strategies based on future insights, offering design guidance for addressing emerging societal challenges.
