As the role of design, and the designer, within contemporary society continues to develop, so too does the nature and purpose of design practice. Design is not only an industrial or production-focused occupation; it is also becoming a critical tool for future-casting. This dynamic, new programme will explore the future, generate new knowledge and formulate hypotheses for how people might live moving forwards.

Whether we are members of a trade union, a “networked organisation,” public sector service provider or commercial enterprise, community group, artistic retreat or the citizenry in general, our social and socialised activities have social, cultural, economic and ecological consequences. This programmes seeks to explore how the practices of collaborative creativity can be explored, employed and enhanced through meaningful engagement with others and the diverse lives that they lead.
