Guest Speakers and Topics:Topic: Make Design MatterMake Design Matter comprises of seven steps based on holistic thinking, shared wisdom, and reflective insights. These stepping stones facilitate a convergence of different fields to inspire designers, clients, and organisations to evolve and develop design solutions which are more evocative.With less design and more thought, David Carlson aims to create value for businesses through the enabling of designers. He also intends to improve the human condition through empathy - by focusing on their well-being and collaboration. Lastly, David Carlson aims to build a future based on generosity instead of greed through the creation of long-term acquired value instead of only short-term gain and profit. Responsible design is about doing the right things!David’s past works/clients include: Absolut Vodka, BMW, IKEA, TEDx & VolvoTopic:
PLACE (and the Place of Furniture)There is currently an upheaval in the way we work and
play, and massive changes will occur in how we live and work in the future. As
humanity and the natural world establish a new equilibrium, buildings, houses,
furniture, objects, neighbourhoods and technology play an important role in this
transformation as well as the general rethinking of how we interact with our
environments.Tim Power explores “the environment, place, territory
and urbanity” by focusing specifically on intimate places where we live and
work, as well as studying the role of man-made tools - which includes furniture
and how these objects fit into our changing natural and urban landscape.
Timothy’s past
works/clients include: Lexus Design Amazing 2013, Louis Vuitton, Muji, Oluce
