Workshops
Two workshops will run simultaneously on Thursday 21 September in the run-up to the Democratic Design Day.

In cooperation with Design Prize Switzerland, they will examine and explore the issue of the ageing society – how designers can respond to this development and what concepts and methods they can use to create integrated, accessible products and services that span the generations.

The second workshop deals with living off-grid. A team from the design department of IKEA of Sweden (IoS) invites you along to develop ideas for life that goes on outside of the networks. How do people live when they 'opt out' for a while and seek both spatial and technological freedom? Where do these needs come from and what does it mean for their living space?

You can sign up here for one of the two workshops. There are a limited number of places available: www.ikeaddd.ch
