THEME: DESIGN RE-THINK
As both a rationalist and a humanist, architect Le Corbusier questioned what we needed to create healthy 'liveable' cities. He was fundamentally interested in how design could be created from the smallest possible means and how good design was intelligence made visible. Corbusier loved the idea of combining seemingly opposing forces and unlikely combinations to forge new directions.
What constitutes 'liveable' today? In a complex social climate, can design thinking balance economic, political, ecological and ethical concerns? Can we design practical systems and enriching environments where people are more engaged? Can design lead to sustainable growth, can it maximise accessibility and celebrate the rights of individuals, communities and the planet?
Can re-thinking design have the power to transform, replenish and restore the well-being of our world and create a cleaner, more beautiful and more functional society?
