At “The Design for the Day Before” book presentation, we will be joined by Oscar Guayabero, author of the book; Josep Bohigas, Catalan architect, and Jelena Prokopljevic, architect.
There have been many designers and theorists who, for years, have claimed that design has a function beyond encouraging consumption. This function is that of a mediator, meaning that design is seen as a discipline that shapes our humanised environment, which some say is artificial. It is an interface between us and the world, between us and the others, and even between us and our own body. This mediating feature has never been so obvious as now because we can see the world from our screens and, for months, we have had to disinfect any object we touch or filter the air we breathe.
