Collectors Collective

This D*signweek, students from the Master's program in Visual Communication invites you to co-create an editorial and documentation of the program's workshops and talks. Together, we reflect on who participates in the design process—whether as designers or as addressees—and how design connects the needs and everyday lives of both. Understanding the person for whom we design, along with their needs, is a fundamental aspect of any creative process.

Equally, the designer’s context and practice significantly influence the outcome. Tools, materials, and design processes shape how information is experienced. As a discursive practice, design navigates these elements while pursuing aesthetic and artistic goals. If “contemporary design” is often seen as exclusive, how can we make it more inclusive? How do we balance accessibility with the evolving language of visual communication?

The exploration of approaches and tools during the festival fosters collective learning, reflection, and knowledge exchange. By asking “For who(m) is the making?”, we aim to radically open the design process, creating spaces for new perspectives, alliances, and networks of solidarity.
