Materialdesign

Professor Valentina Rognoli will participate as a speaker at the MATERIALDESIGN Design Research Symposium. During the event, PhD candidates Sofia Duarte and Malu Luecking will also present their research work within the Department.

Materialdesign expands and challenges the disciplinary boundaries and the understanding of design. Designing with materials is inherently a practice of researching, experimentation and crossing traditional disciplinary borders. The dialogue with materials encourages the exploration of novel forms, techniques, and fosters innovative outcomes – in this way, materialdesign drives the evolution of new paradigms and approaches in design practice and research.

The Symposium explores the evolving roles of materials design of generating knowledge through practice. By bringing together international researchers working in this scope, it aims to provide a holistic overview of this evolving field, to discuss the future roles of materialdesign in the design study.
