About Tosca de Jong

I am Tosca de Jong, a systems thinker and writer working at the intersection of architecture, data, and strategy.


My work is driven by a single question:


How do we design structures that are coherent, human-centered, and built to last?


Over the past decade, I’ve worked across energy, digital infrastructure, and organizational strategy, always with the same focus: clarifying complexity and turning vision into something that actually works.


My public writing explores systems thinking, European coherence, aesthetics as intelligence, and the quiet structures that shape how we live and decide.


I believe in clarity that makes room for depth, and in building systems that serve the human. Whether I’m writing about information models, cultural stagnation, or the illusion of truth in a digital age, my aim is the same: precision with resonance.


This domain is reserved for my work as a thinker and author. My applied consultancy practice lives at Futurescripted.

BOOK

BEFORE THE ARCHITECTURE

Why systems fail before anyone notices


Coming out in Spring 2026.

What breaks before systems break

Most organisations do not fail where they think they do.
They do not fail because of tools, or processes, or lack of effort.

They fail earlier.

By the time an organisation is “doing architecture,” something essential has already loosened. The words people use no longer point to the same things. Decisions no longer rest on shared reference. Structure begins to describe instead of constrain.

What follows is motion without direction.

Before the Architecture is about that earlier moment — the one that rarely gets named, but shapes everything that comes after.
