The Future of Design, October 9-10
Posted in: Uncategorized
We’re excited to announce that the Taubman School of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan, headed up by Office dA’s Monica Ponce de Leon, is hosting the Future of Design conference on October 9th and 10th in Ann Arbor.
Thirty designers, critics and provocative thinkers will come together to brainstorm about how design is evolving across various disciplines including architecture, landscape architecture, interactive, industrial, and interior design. The presentations are free and open to the public. The speakers will present their views in 15-minutes segments. Following the Friday session, there will be dinner conversations moderated by faculty and students. All segments, including the round table discussion at dinner, will be available at YouTube starting Oct. 19, 2009.
The line up is star-studded, including American product designers Laurene Boym and Stephen Burks; architects Mark Tsurumaki, Hilary Sample, Greg Lynn and Meejin Yoon; and editor-in-chief of Metropolis Magazine Susan Szenasy.
For a full schedule and to register (it’s free), head over to the conference website.
