​Presentation

DesignNature – Nature of Design
We live in times of realization that as humanity we have made many mistakes while developing our civilization. Therefore, there is a growing need to reset the values and development goals, and act swiftly and effectively. This requires the ability to both learn and unlearn in entirely new ways, going deep to the sole purpose of why we are here on the planet, and what we can do cleverly joining forces with nature. Glass industry is not an exception. How can we design and produce responsibly?​
