Role
Eating Designer
Goal
Designing the opening event for the International Colloquium of the Cultural
Spaces and Design Education Program to foster encounter and dialog.
Output
Designing of a unique picnic blanket featuring photos of objects commonly
found in the bathrooms of participants from Botswana, India, Australia and
Switzerland. The design incorporates the theme of water, reflecting the integral
role it plays in the international research workshops.
Each object on the blanket is accompanied by a swiss brunch dish.
During the brunch, participants select a dish and cut out the corresponding part
of the blanket serving them as a napkin. To enjoy the whole meal people have to
share and engage with one another.
This approach on food design facilitates initial exchanges and fosters new connections
among the participants of the Cultural Spaces and Design Education
program, which focuses on Applied Intercultural Design Research and explores
the impact of globalization on design and design education.
