As it is a mirror of our society the confrontation with design involves cultural, social, economic and aesthetic aspects. The conference DESIGN07 (designzeroseven) organised by Vienna University of Applied Arts and curated by the Neigungsgruppe Design plans to establish a critical design discourse on current themes from the area of design theory and practice. - Participants in the dialogues
Different experts will discuss the phenomenon The Middle in relation to design, in concrete terms with regard to product, industrial and furniture design. The dialogue partners are designers, producers, entrepreneurs, representatives of design institutions, curators, media and marketing specialists, theorists and educationalists.
