Lessons from Europe
The Design Council published a report from a fact-finding tour to the Netherlands, Denmark and Finland that explored how cross-disciplinary teaching and learning is changing the nature of design.
The tour members, which were academics and policy makers and also included design consultant and emerging markets specialist Niti Bhan, visited academic institutions (Technical University Delft, Design Academy Eindhoven, Technical University Eindhoven, KaosPilots, Aarhus School of Architecture, Workcamp07, University of Art and Design Helsinki, Helsinki School of Creative Entrepreneurship, and Helsinki University of Technology) and companies (Philips Design, Designit, Zentropa Workz, Nokia, Kone, and Desigence).
