“Think!” Design Students Self-planned Exhibition
What can design do in an era of great change?
The International Design Center NAGOYA has solicited self-planned exhibition projects that design students in the region themselves “think” with the keyword “society and design”. This project supports outstanding activities that focus on, think and act on society.
The exhibition project selected for the first “Think!” is “Cycle”, which was proposed mainly by students of Nagoya University of the Arts.
An exhibition of students and companies (paper / metal / wood) that launches an upcycling brand to build a circular economy system.
How can design tackle the social problems surrounding the present age? We will take a new perspective on “Responsible Consumption and Production” and deliver a message to the future.
Talk events will be held on March 26, 27.
