Future of Design

Top sessions with the 2017 theme Future of Design in mind, include a series by DIF collaborator UnSchool on Designing a Post Disposable Future, a challenge was set during the DIF which encourages us all to rapidly redesign systems that sustain wastefulness and resource depletion, by reframing negative narratives.
