International Conference on Design Principles and Practices
International Conference on Design Principles and Practices
15 to 17 February 2009
Berlin, Germany
Objective :
This conference is a place to explore the meaning and purpose of 'design', as well as speaking in grounded ways about the task of design and the use of designed artifacts and processes. The conference is a cross- disciplinary forum which brings together researchers, teachers and practitioners to discuss the nature and future of design. The resulting conversations weave between the theoretical and the empirical, research and application, market pragmatics and social idealism.
Conference Dinner :
The Design Conference Dinner will be held on Monday, 16 February 2009 at the Bereznitsky Gallery.
The Bereznitsky Gallery opened in 2006 and is the first space in Berlin to represent contemporary Ukranian art.
Through its regular exhibitions and events, the gallery hopes to play a key role in facilitating a cultural meeting point between the contemporary art worlds of East and West.
