Dezeen has teamed up with DesignMarch to livestream a day of talks focused on the importance of design in addressing global challenges. Watch the last two sessions here from 2:30pm London time.
DesignTalks is a programme of live talks taking place at the Henning Larsen Architects-designed Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre in Reykjavik, Iceland. The talks are moderated by Dezeen’s editor Tom Ravenscroft.
The conference will be split into four themed sessions, which are being livestreamed today on Dezeen in two parts. The second part will be streamed here from 2:30pm London time. The first part was streamed on Dezeen earlier today – you can watch it at this link.
The third session will host a panel featuring landscape architect and co-founder of LOLA Architects Peter Veenstra, artistic director and founder of design studio ÞYKJÓ Sigríður Sunna Reynisdóttir, partner at design studio Design Group Italia Sigurður Þorsteinsson, and founder of art project Graphic Rewilding Lee Baker.
This panel will discuss how design can be used to address the social challenges highlighted during the pandemic. Speakers will discuss questions such as how to design for dignity, justice, participation and inclusion, and how we can create more healing environments.
In the last session of the conference, bio-designer and Faber Futures founder Natsai Audrey Chieza and senior curator of architecture and design at The Museum of Modern Art Paola Antonelli will wrap up the themes discussed in previous sessions by exploring what they think the future of design holds.
The pair will also discuss how designers can use the advances in science and technology in recent years, looking at rapidly advancing fields such as bio-design.
