The exhibition
Design | Practice | Research
The design project questions the systems from which objects emerge, beyond the design of artefacts: resources, production, distribution, marketing and economics. The aim is to understand how these systems influence, inform or limit design.
The Design Department of ENS Paris-Saclay and its associated laboratory, the Centre de Recherche en Design, encourage research that questions the norms and roles of industrial design. They develop
- projects exploring local, situated and participatory solutions
- projects that propose alternative roles for design in the context of scientific research;
- projects combining simple technologies with high technologies.
The pedagogical approach articulates theory and practice: history, philosophy, culture and design techniques are at the heart of the teaching of the Master of Design Research.
In parallel with the exhibition
Urban walks and observation workshops
A series of urban walks and observation workshops are proposed to rediscover urban landscapes with the help of a cam-obs, a camera obscura specially designed to look at, draw and exchange around our common ground.
