DIA – Design Days Brisbane: Roundtable How does design help to improve society.

  • Museum of Brisbane 64 Adelaide Street Brisbane City, QLD, 4000 Australia (map)

Join us for the DIA Design Days Brisbane event in partnership with the Museum of Brisbane, during Brisbane Art & Design BAD where we will be hosting a timely roundtable discussion on the Future of Design.

As designers work across a growing range of disciplines, this event will explore how the next generation can advocate for the crucial role of design in addressing contemporary challenges and how cross-disciplinary collaboration can encourage knowledge-sharing, debate, and connection within the broader design community.

We will also examine how design culture is impacting businesses, institutions, and governments, and how innovation is making life easier for people and improving society.

Join us to learn about new trends, methodologies, and success stories that are shaping the future of design. Tickets will be limited, however an online registration will be avalible.
