In the push to reduce waste and rethink materials, it’s just as vital to consider the need for presence – the need to feel, relate, and belong. This talk explores how tactility, materiality, and spatial design can reintroduce sensory depth – through the textiles we wear, the materials we handle, and the spaces we inhabit.
Join us at BLOX EATS during 3 Days of Design for a sensory conversation about designing with both people and the planet in mind. We’ll dive into how materials, tactility, and space can foster empathy, engagement, and meaningful connections – and why this human dimension is essential to a sustainable future.
The conversation is moderated by Julie Hjort, Deputy Director at the Danish Design Center (DDC), and the panel consists of Malene Hvidt, co-founder and architect at Spacon; Karen Marie Hasling, PhD and associate professor at Design School Kolding; and David Maximillian Schneider, co-founder of ReCraft Design Studio.
- The talk will be in english.
- The event is free, but registration is required.
- The event is organized in collaboration with BLOXHUB, Creative Denmark, and the Danish Design Center.
