Seminar – Design: Now and Next
Design is like a framework, that allows the fitting of various lenses. It allows us to see through: problems, social norms, money, everything until we finally see the people. It allows for the revelation of opportunities within enormous constraints, opportunities that otherwise would barely even exist.
Design: Now and Next consists of a series of discourses where invited experts and practitioners in the respective cluster-fields talk about their work and their take on projects done by the IDC batch of 2015.
