_The project FUTURE DESIGN PERSPECTIVES – INTERNATIONAL STUDENT AMBASSADORS is happy to invite you to a presentation of this past year’s work in an exhibition and hybrid event featuring future designers and interdisciplinary design experts.
_Highlights of the program will include a presentation of the results of two international design workshops held by our student ambassadors, and the launch of the project’s own design TORCH:LIGHT as an example for practical design research.
_The event will culminate in a COFFEE + DIALOGUE panel discussion, a format for exchange established by the EMBASSY. Experts in design theory and practice will address the research question "Are the ideas of Modernism sufficient to solve 21st Century problems?" The hybrid panel will be open via Zoom to our international partners.
_In the exhibition visitors will be able to experience a range of activities, including a light installation, the display of a famous torch by a well-known modernist designer, and the opportunity to meet our guests and design experts who are sure to broaden all of our perspectives.
_The event will be in English.
