Talk: ‘The Circle of Design’, 24th May 2022
As part of Clerkenwell Design Week, I am chairing a panel discussion titled, ‘The Circle of Design’.
Description: In an age of increased circularity within manufacturing and design processes, our panel explore and dissect some of the products and spaces we use and inhabit, and how they are constructed, consumed and disposed of. Chaired by Max Fraser with Jonas Pettersson (BAUX, Form us with Love), Simone Suss (Interior Design Declares / Studio Suss), and Sophie Thomas (Useful Projects).
The talk is free to attend and takes place at 1pm on 24th May 2022 in the BAUX Acoustic Lounge at Old Session House, 23 Clerkenwell Green, London EC1R 0NA. See you there!
