Design in the Age of Experience – Milan Design Week

Worldwide Conference for Sustainable Innovation

April 8-14 2019 | Milan Design Week | Italy

Dassault Systèmes announced the Design for Life program at Milan Design Week 2019. The 5-day program (April 9-13) is an exciting mix of presentations by thought leaders and conversations with design practitioners and innovators. Each day’s program is constructed around a specific theme: Matter (April 9) looks at the new role of designers in rematerializing the world. Human (April 10) considers how human interaction with machines changes us. Space (April 11) investigates the tremendous potential of regenerative design. On April 12 Art of Living looks at how design can advocate for social change. Social Forward is a future-focused day on April 13 that revolves around how design changes our relationship to the world and how it helps us achieve our ideals.
Professor Tuba Kocartuk of MInD Lab, together with the associate director of Zaha Hadid Architects Cristiano Ceccato and Lille Metropole 2020 program director Caroline Naphegyi, will be part of discussion on April 11 that will cover potentials of regenerative design.
How we design cities determines the future of our planet. As evolving ecosystems, cities are home to a population bigger than ever before. The conversation will discover the tremendous potential of regenerative design, novice methodology in architecture/urban design that can create cities that enhance the human experience of urban life while improving mobility. The presenters will also look at city dweller expectations for more fulfilling and personalized experiences.
The program offers an in-depth experience with leading voices in the world of design. Various session formats ensure that visitors can engage with speakers and participate in dynamic discussions. Future Talks showcase how designers and innovators tackle complex challenges; Open Conversations delve deeper into topics and offer practical insights; Design Stories are hands-on explanations of how design approaches solve everyday challenges and prepare us for the future.
