ABSTRACT

This chapter aims to develop a set of loose questions to help guide the conversation with designers and practitioners. The laboratories aim to not only democratizes design by making it accessible to all, but also to push the boundaries of what is known about materials, fabrics, and technology. Laura Civetti is an interior designer with a degree in interior design from the Instituto Europeo di Design in Milan. Mark Tippin characterizes himself as a human-centered design communicator who conducts workshops aimed to incorporate design thinking and processes into a company’s culture. Even designers need creative outlets, practices that go beyond their job description, deeper on a personal level, wider on a world level. Eva is a user experience designer and visual thinker, born and raised in Germany and living in Berlin.
