More about our value:
- Benevolence: we work closely together to take advantage of all intelligences and sensitivities. We want our lab to be a benevolent space[1].
- Curiosity: we want to find new synergies with academic, industrial, associative, public and private organizations. Following the philosopher of science Anne-Françoise Schmid’s concept of under-determination[2][3], we import elements from scientific disciplines to support new theoretical insights in design. This is how we put the in-discipline of design into practice![4]
- Futurism: We are resolutely focused on the future that we want to build[5][6][7][8]. We are interested in the challenges of our contemporary world and we want to do some research that will matter for the future. We are also a school, and we are driven by the questions asked by our students!
- Rigor: our goal is to contribute to international research in transition design and systemic design with a focus on material cultures and designing operations.
