InterSections
Event Info
Description
Design is transforming as it adapts to a world in transition. Design
has expanded into new terrain and the boundaries between disciplines
are breaking down. As it changes so do the skill-sets needed to
practice it; to stay competitive designers are adapting to the new
landscape, by acquiring new know-how.
Many developments in the nineties were driven by the integration of
computer skills into the designers toolbox. Now the emphasis is on
acquiring more multi-disciplinary and contextual skills.
Groundbreaking designers from different disciplines will tell stories
at Intersections about what they have learned lately, what they expect
to learn next, and why. The conference will also feature lively debate
between path-finding designers and thinkers with different views on how
designers should prepare for the future.
