SUMMARY:DESIGN IN THE AGE OF TRANSITIONS
DESCRIPTION:COVID\, climate change\, wars\, gender struggles and new technology acceleration: recent events question the societal choices we have made in the past years. As we realize that change is the only constant in our personal and professional lives\, we recognize that business as usual cannot be the answer. To change direction\, we need a different perspective\, a different type of leadership. In the Age of Transitions\, comes Design Leadership. Design is an alternative route to regenerate business\, technology\, and ultimately our lives. We need to design for impact\, to transform our behaviors\, usher in new ways of working and collaborating… Designers by nature thrive in times of transitions\, focused as they are on improving existing situations and envisioning a better world\, as well as their ability to remain creative despite the turmoil. Meet experienced design leaders making a difference in industry and academia\, as well as the game-changers from the World Design Organization and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. \nWebsite \nWDO Member: Dassault Systèmes

SUMMARY:MASSIVE DESIGN CHANGES | MASTER CLASSES: BRANDS AS STORIES - DANNY KREEFT
DESCRIPTION:We have been telling stories for centuries. We find it easier to remember information that is structured by means of a causal connection. Companies tell us their “brand story”. Unlike books with lineair plots\, brand stories evolve over time and are (visually) expressed through many channels. Wherever people encounter a piece of the narrative they should be able to enter the story’s flow and experience the brand through it. \nWebsite \nWDO Member: Polidesign

SUMMARY:2022 INTERNATIONAL DESIGN CONFERENCE - THE LENS
DESCRIPTION:A lens is a medium that focuses or disperses a light beam. Design then offers various types of refraction\, creating different effects through the lens. Design is like a multi-perspective lens that transforms all elements in our daily lives in the past\, present\, and future into multiple possibilities. At the same time\, it reflects our hopes\, fears\, desires\, anxieties\, beliefs and values that entangled in our mind.\nIn the time of uncertainty\, how does a designer become a lens maker? We seek to respond to urgent issues including climate change\, religious conflict\, racial discrimination\, gender equality\, wealth gap\, aging society and the impact of the Anthropocene\, trying to compose new objects\, systems and structures. \nWebsite \nWDO Member: Compal
