Conference Review: NORDES 2011

toplogo.jpg

There are several reasons why going to NORDES conferences pays off. First: The cozy atmosphere (feels like a huge family meeting). Second: The preference in theories and role models (very high wicked-problem, reflection-in-action, actor-networks affinity). Third: The will of the participants to change perspective (due to some decades of practice in self-critique and reflection). [more...]

Conference Report: DesignInquiry Montréal

Universal Design – strongly supported by Ron Mace in the 1980s at New York State University – has since then become a well known concept, ranging similar to »inclusive design« and »design for all«. Mainly based on 7 basic principles it is worth questioning how influential the concept is today and which impacts it has for today´s design community. The international conference for Universal Design is a four-yearly event which provides the most prominent event to verify this question. [more...]
