Industry Elective

Description

The client for this project is the UN’s Innovation Cell at UN Headquarters New York with a brief to design a new multifunctional space within an existing floorplan.

In a two-week intensive block, students learn to utilise performative methods in their exploration and definition of what kind of space is needed for international peacebuilding processes. Students rapidly develop multifunctional furniture and incorporate digital, virtual and augmented reality systems into the space, which encourages creative exploration and democratic processes. Students build their designs in the studio and communicate their working processes and results via social media and video documentation and exhibit their project in the IKEA x UTS Future Living Lab.
